Blend from Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, Vallée de la Marne
When I was making wine at Yarra Yering we used a Solera barrel of Chardonnay in the liqueur d'expedition for the fizz. The depth, length, and, complexity of this wine with those Oxy notes was a great foil to the richness in the base wines.Fascinating to see what happend to wines made of quality fruit when you age them for extended periods in wood.
Pinot Noir from Bouzy, Montagne de Reims
The release of the 2015 saw the Bouzy shift from a Pinot/Chardonnay blend to a 100% Pinot. The fruit is sourced from estate owned vines.The 2015 release was one of my favourity wines from the vintage. I'm looking forward to devouring a bottle of 2018 soon!Striking peach skin color. Wonderfully effusive nose with a wide spectrum of aromas that range from nectarine to orange blossom and wild herbs. Breathtaking interplay of delicate stone fruit character. SP 97 Points
Pinot Noir from Ambonnay, Montagne de Reims
Wonderful wine. Such incredible purity & precision! "The 2018 vintage of Benoît Marguet’s “Ambonnay” Rosé is an excellent follow-up to the dazzling 2017 version he made of this wine. The cépages for the 2018 version is eighty-two percent chardonnay and eighteen percent pinot noir. As has been the case for many vintages now, the wine is non-dosé and was aged three and a half years on its fine lees prior to disgorgement in February of 2023. The bouquet is very, very refined this year, wa
Pinot Noir from Bouzy, Montagne de Reims
“At once fragrant and flinty, this has a breathtaking vibrancy that makes you sit up and feel glad to be alive. And a large part of that energy is only released after you have swallowed this extraordinary Champagne. And yet it is also brimming with mirabelle and peach character. 100% pinot noir. From organically grown grapes. Disgorged in February 2023."SP 96 Points100% Pinot Noir from Vinegrower: Hugues Godmé. Production years: 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019
Blend from Avize, Côte des Blancs
Disgorged June 2023. Complantée comes from a single parcel in Avize that Agrapart co-planted (complantée) with six varieties: Pinot Noir, Meunier, Chardonnay and the heirloom Champagne varieties of Arbane, Petit Meslier and Pinot Blanc. Chardonnay accounts for one-quarter of the blend, with the remainder split equally between the other five varieties. The vines are all in the Fosse vineyard, the same site that gives us the great Vénus cuvée (the name of the specific vineyard parcel w
Blend from Avenay-Val-d'Or, Vallée de la Marne
The perfect introduction to Pouillon's wines, yet, far from an entry level. The gives you a peak into just how much personality and vitality his wines have. Balancing a hint of oxidative character with delicious fruit with great length and depth. The Reserve Brut represents a little splash of fruit across most of Pouillon's holdings. The blend of Pinot, Meunier and Chardonnay is expertly integrated. Fabrice truly gets élévage. This is an incredibly complex, layered and beautiful Champagne. Suc
Blend from Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, Vallée de la Marne
Notes on the 2012:This is superb. So fine and delicious. Such harmony is not common, the Pinot and Chardonnay are playing together beautifully. It has just the right level of oxidative vinosity, so well supported by a core of fruit that has great length and depth. I keep coming back the the harmony, layers of complexity and balance. Will the Pinot seems to be the dominant, as would be expected in the front and mid-palate, the line and length from the Chardonnay and the mineral nature to this
Pinot Noir from Ambonnay, Montagne de Reims
Disgorged in April 2020, the 2015 La Grande Ruelle Grand Cru is lovely, mingling scents of pear and orange oil with hints of honeyed toast. Medium to full-bodied, layered and muscular, it's a concentrated, chiseled wine from vines planted in 1967 on alluvial soils.William Kelley
Blend from Ambonnay, Montagne de Reims
Fruit from 'Les Crayères' makes its way into some of Champagnes very best wines. It's the source of Egly-Ouriets Blanc de Noir! A blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir this year, Marguet's 2015 Ambonnay Grand Cru Les Crayères is showing especially well, mingling aromas of pear and waxy citrus rind with notions of vanilla pod and toasted almonds. Full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it's chiseled and penetrating, with a pearly mousse and a saline, mineral finish. Only two lieux-dits were produc

Egly easily sits in my list of top 5 Champagne Houses The top end of the Champgne spectrum is often perceived (due to a lot of marketing) to be the Super Cuvées like Dom Perignon and Krug. Don’t get me wrong these are great wines. The thing is when you get the chance and taste the top wines from Grower Champagne houses like Egly-Ouriet you find yourself taking things to an all new level. Their vineyards are immaculate, the fruit comes in with so much intensity you could happily drink the fini
