Domaine Egly-Ouriet Champagne is sensual and unforgettable, a necessary experience for those who crave the power and finesse of Pinot Noir-based wines. What you’ll find at this family “grower” house is truly vinous Champagne, wines striking in their concentration and complexity. Winemaker Francis Egly’s practice of harvesting very ripe grapes and aging his wines in barrel for years are some of the technical decisions that set his art apart from the rest; yet it is the results that captivate. Egly Ouriet Champagne is age-worthy, sumptuous and at times surreal; these wines are unquestionably the pinnacle of Pinot Noir-based Champagne.

Champagne Grand Cru Extra Brut, traditional method, produced by Egly-Ouriet. Blend: 60% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay.  Sourced from the great terroirs of Ambonnay, Bouzy, and Verzenay, classified as Grand Cru. Aromas of cherry, strawberry, and blood orange pave the way for a bold yet balanced flavor with good acidity. A wine that perfectly expresses its terroir, thanks to the old vines and the expert hand of the winemaker. Aged for 84 months.
