Champagne Egly-Ouriet Les Prémices Brut

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 Brut Les Prémices is typical of the Montagne de Reims Champagne with a delicate pear, white blossom and mirabelle plum nose. Crunchy, rounded and fresh attack with a lovely balance between the chalky mineralogy and the notes of red apple and plum. Vinous and zesty finish.

Equal parts Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier.
