Organic Practices
27% OFF RETAIL!
A profound, vinous Champagne from one of Ambonnay’s most revered grower-producers. The 2014 vintage shows incredible tension between power and precision, with notes of baked apple, brioche, and chalky minerality. Long, layered, and built for aging, it’s a benchmark of grower Grand Cru quality.
About The Producer
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's grower's 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. Proudly, North Berkeley Imports was one of the first importers to bring Egly-Ouriet wines to the United States.
