Now this is a serious rosé Champagne from a serious producer. Made exclusively with the grapes from some of the very best villages in Champagne, this is one of our favourite champagnes on offer from Egly- Ouriet.
'Egly-Ouriet’s Champagnes are so good that I have begun buying them to drink chez moi.'
(Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate)
We were delighted to add Egly-Ouriet Champagne to our range, and if you have tasted them you will understand why. This is a fourth generation, family-run business now managed by…
This champagne is 100% Pinot Meunier - an unusual but inspired choice. Produced from low yielding old vines, it is soft, creamy, with the intensity that Egly manages to bring to all his Champagne; different, yes, but brilliant with it.
Ran by Francis Egly, this Egly-Ouriet has become something of a cult Champagne. Following biodynamic farming principles, the house has produced this rich and powerful blend.
If you want Champagne that packs a punch whilst retaining its finesse and elegance, look no further. This intense, full-bodied champagne has layer upon layer of texture and flavour - perhaps something to treat yourself to?
This "Blanc de noir" Champagne is harvested from Grand Cru vineyards of Pinot Noir old vines planted in 1946 on a exceptional chalky soil. It has great potential for ageing, and is perfect for food pairing.
