Champagne Egly-Ouriet

Montagne de ReimsAmbonnayRMRMRécoltant ManipulantA grower who makes champagne only from fruit grown on their own land. This is the grower-producer category, and the strictest in terms of sourcing.Founded 1945

Egly-Ouriet is one of the two estates, alongside Jacques Selosse, most responsible for the rise of grower Champagne.

Everything here is allowed to settle slowly. The wines rest longer than the market asks for, and the family tastes the whole range before anything leaves the cellar.
