{"title":"Egly-Ouriet","description":"\u003cp\u003eEgly-Ouriet is the grower that champagne lovers mention in the same breath as Selosse. Francis Egly makes dense, winey, Pinot Noir driven champagne from grand cru vineyards in Ambonnay, ages it far longer than the rules ask, and doses it lightly. The range runs from Les Prémices to Les Crayères, the Millésimes and a still Ambonnay Rouge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eEgly-Ouriet: a grower champagne estate in Ambonnay\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmbonnay, on the south-eastern flank of the Montagne de Reims, is Pinot Noir country. The Egly family has farmed vines here for four generations, but the estate as we know it took shape when Francis Egly took over from his father Michel in the early 1980s and began bottling everything under the family name instead of selling grapes to the big houses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grand cru vines sit in Ambonnay, Bouzy and Verzenay, with Chardonnay in a supporting role. Two premier cru sites add something different: Vrigny, planted with Pinot Meunier, and Bisseuil on the Marne side. Grown and made by the family: that is grower champagne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Egly-Ouriet champagne tastes the way it does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree choices shape the style. Much of the wine ferments in oak barrels rather than steel, which gives breadth and a nutty, savoury depth. It then spends years on the lees, even for the non-vintage cuvées, where the law asks for fifteen months, and that is where the creamy texture comes from. And the dosage is kept low, so ripe Pinot fruit carries the wine rather than sugar. The result drinks more like a great white Burgundy with bubbles than an aperitif champagne, and it loves the table: roast chicken, mushrooms, aged Comté.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Egly-Ouriet range, from Les Prémices to Les Crayères\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLes Prémices, Brut Grand Cru and Extra Brut Tradition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLes Prémices is the way in, the freshest and most approachable bottle in the range, also in magnum. The Brut Grand Cru and Extra Brut Tradition are the heart of the estate: Ambonnay Pinot Noir with a share of Chardonnay, long aged and full of energy. The Grand Cru Rosé, in bottle and magnum, adds red fruit and a little grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVignes de Vrigny and Vignes de Bisseuil\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVignes de Vrigny is a premier cru made from Pinot Meunier alone, round and spicy, and a fine argument for an underrated grape. Vignes de Bisseuil gives a premier cru take on the house style from outside the Ambonnay heartland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLes Crayères Blanc de Noirs and the Millésimes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLes Crayères is the icon: a grand cru Blanc de Noirs from a single plot of old Pinot Noir vines in Ambonnay, planted in the 1940s, and the most sought after wine the estate makes. The Blanc de Noirs Vieilles Vignes label is the same old-vine Pinot Noir. The Millésime Brut runs from 2008 (in magnum) through 2012 to 2016, with Extra Brut Millésimes from 2015, 2016 and 2017 for those who like it bone dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAmbonnay Rouge: still Pinot Noir from Champagne\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe surprise in the cellar is red and still. Coteaux Champenois is the appellation for Champagne's non-sparkling wines, and Egly-Ouriet's Ambonnay Rouge Cuvée des Grands Côtés, from old vines, is one of its most respected examples. Pale, cool and fine boned, it sits close to Burgundy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExplore more \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/champagne\"\u003echampagne\u003c\/a\u003e, Pinot driven \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/blanc-de-noirs\"\u003eBlanc de Noirs champagne\u003c\/a\u003e, the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pinot-noir\"\u003ePinot Noir\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pinot-meunier\"\u003ePinot Meunier\u003c\/a\u003e grapes, or fellow Ambonnay grower \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/champagne-marguet\"\u003eChampagne Marguet\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eEgly-Ouriet champagne FAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Egly-Ouriet a grower champagne?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.

Made from old-vine Grand Cru fruit in Ambonnay, this is a rare and limited bottling that speaks more to great Burgundy than to what most people expect from Champagne. It’s a wine for collectors and serious Pinot Noir lovers who want to experience the terroir that usually ends up in top grower Champagnes, here expressed as an ultra-refined, still red.\n\nThe unique selling point of this wine is its origin: Grand Cru Pinot Noir from Ambonnay, crafted by one of Champagne’s most revered grower-producers, and vinified as a Coteaux Champenois rather than a sparkling wine. Low yields, meticulous vineyard work and traditional élevage result in exceptional concentration, energy and finesse. Historically, still wines from Champagne pre-date the region’s fame for sparkling, and cuvées like this pay homage to that heritage while setting a modern benchmark for quality Coteaux Champenois.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, the 2022 Ambonnay Coteaux Champenois Grand Cru shows a luminous, deep ruby color with translucent edges, hinting at both concentration and finesse. Swirled, it clings to the glass with fine, slow-moving legs, a sign of ripeness and extract in this warm vintage.\n\nThe nose is precise and layered: wild red cherries, raspberries and crushed strawberries intertwine with notes of blood orange zest, rose petals and violets. Subtle yet complex savory nuances of graphite, black tea, dried herbs and a whisper of forest floor emerge with air, alongside delicate oak tones—think fine spice, light vanilla bean and a touch of smoke—integrated rather than dominant.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is taut yet sensual, with a silken texture wrapped around a core of vibrant, red-fruited acidity. Flavors of sour cherry, redcurrant and raspberry coulis are framed by chalky, mineral drive that is very much Ambonnay: firm, linear and saline. Fine-grained tannins give the wine structure without heaviness, and the finish is long, focused and mouthwatering, with lingering notes of crushed stone, spice and fresh red berries. The 2022 vintage delivers generous fruit, but Egly-Ouriet’s hallmark tension and precision keep everything beautifully in balance.\n\nThis wine has serious aging potential for a still Champagne Pinot Noir. While already approachable in its youth with a bit of aeration, it will gain in complexity, aromatic depth and textural harmony over 8–15 years in a good cellar, evolving toward more floral, truffley and sous-bois nuances while maintaining its mineral backbone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Coteaux Champenois comes from carefully selected Pinot Noir parcels in Ambonnay, one of Champagne’s most prestigious Grand Cru villages on the Montagne de Reims. The terroir is dominated by chalk-rich soils with thin topsoil layers, providing excellent drainage and imparting the signature mineral tension and salinity that define both the village’s top Champagnes and its rare still reds. The slopes are well-exposed, allowing full phenolic ripeness even in cooler years, and in a warm vintage like 2022, Egly-Ouriet’s strict yield control and meticulous canopy management ensure balance rather than excess. Grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness, with rigorous sorting to retain only perfectly healthy, concentrated fruit. Vinification follows a traditional, low-intervention philosophy: fermentation in oak with indigenous yeasts, careful extraction to preserve finesse over power, and aging in barrel (often including a proportion of used barriques) to add texture and complexity without overwhelming the terroir expression. Minimal fining and filtration, if any, help maintain purity and depth, while bottling is done with a clear focus on preserving the wine’s energy and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis refined, mineral-driven Pinot Noir is an excellent partner for elegant, terroir-focused cuisine.

It also shines with refined charcuterie, mushroom-based dishes, truffle risotto, and earthy preparations featuring root vegetables or lentils. Lighter, washed-rind cheeses or semi-soft styles like Reblochon or Chaource can also work beautifully, especially when served at the end of the meal. Serve at 14–16°C (57–61°F) to highlight its aromatic complexity and freshness. Young bottles benefit from 45–60 minutes in a decanter to open up the nose and soften the tannins; older vintages can be gently double-decanted shortly before serving to preserve their more delicate tertiary notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEgly-Ouriet, led by Francis Egly, is one of Champagne’s benchmark grower-producers and a revered name among wine enthusiasts worldwide.

As an Extra Brut, the dosage is kept very low, allowing the pure character of the vintage and site to shine, and the wine spends significant time on its lees before disgorgement, contributing to its fine mousse and layered palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Champagne is a superb match for refined, flavorful dishes—think oysters or shellfish platters, turbot with beurre blanc, scallops with cauliflower purée, or lobster with brown butter and citrus.

Serve well-chilled but not icy, ideally around 9–11°C (48–52°F), to let the aromatics fully express themselves.
