Egly-Ouriet
There are few growers in champagne with the attention to detail and unashamed passion for producing wines of distinction. Egly-Ouriet (pronounced Egg-lee Ou-ri-yay) is based in the Grand Cru Village of Ambonnay, famed for its Pinot Noir fruit.
It is run by the skilful, Francis Egly who practices biodynamic and organic principals in his vineyards which span, Bouzy and Verzenay. Francis makes up a handful of highly talented and terroir-driven producers along with the likes of Anselme Selosse, Larmandier-Bernier and Vouette et Sorbée.
These are wines first and he produces deep, powerful and intense styles of champagne. His minimum ageing is around 48-60 months (as declared on his informative back label) for his non-vintage wines, allowing time to express the inner strength and purity.
If you’ve never heard of Egly-Ouriet before, you are in for a treat. “Few producers can equal Francis Egly in skill and experience, and larger houses cannot hope to emulate the cultivation norms…” Michel Bettane, The World's Greatest Wines.
"Champagne! In victory one deserves it; in defeat one needs it."
Napoleon Bonaparte, 18th century French conqueror (1769 - 1873).
A victory in itself, Emperor Champagne promotes, educates and distributes one of the largest varieties of champagne and is considered the Mecca for champagne. One such great champagne is Egly-Ouriet.
This famous quote by Napoleon Bonaparte embodies the spirit of Emperor Champagne’s founder Kyla Kirkpatrick, whose love for championing the development of this beverage has seen the company grow from a personal dream to a highly successful and major online champagne distributor in Australia.
Maison Egly-Ouriet
Speaking of victories, the Maison Egly-Ouriet was founded shortly after the end of the Second World War in the Champagne region of France. The vines from this house are more than 60 years old, with the average being 40 years.
Of the 10 hectares, two-thirds is reserved for Pinot-Noire grapes and the remaining one-third for both the Pinot-Meunier and Chardonnay grape variety. Sparkling wines from this house have been aged between one and five years.
Presently, the vineyard is under the care of agronomist Claude Bourguigno whose ecologically sound practices limit the use of pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilisers, while focusing on quality and not quantity.
The grapes are left to ripen fully naturally, a method of green harvesting which tends to lower the level of acidity. He believes that despite this, the levels are still sufficiently present and sufficient/
On the other hand, some of the grape varieties harvested from a different area retain a higher mineral content. The champagne is then fermented in oak barrels, then bottled and aged for between three to four years, and six years for the vintage blends.
The end result of blending the different varieties grown in different soil conditions is an unforgettable champagne that makes Egly-Ouriet Champagne a world famous brand.
Grand Brut and Pinot Meunier
The Grand Brut sparkling wine is a blend of Pinot-Noire and Chardonnay that is fermented with natural yeast before being aged on lees for a period of approximately a year during which time it slowly attains clarity to produce an excellent cuvée. The wine is then bottled without filtering or fining.
While the Pinot-Meunier is produced from very old grapes harvested from the Vrigny vineyard. Without the use of any blending, Maison Egly-Ouriet were the first to create this unusual and pure champagne.

The return of the two Egly children, Charles and Clémence, to the Domaine has given Francis Egly the ability to begin producing from these plots, and this is the inaugural release.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Reflecting what is planted in the vineyards, Les Prémices is an equal blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier drawn from mature vines (on average, 40 years old) rooted in clay, sand and sandstone, over chalk bedrock - a soil typical of the Massif de St. Thierry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"A new wine in the Egly range, the NV Brut Les Prémices is a Chardonnay\/Pinot Noir\/Meunier blend from Trigny, all 2016 vintage. Bright floral notes and the natural richness of Pinots come together nicely in this entry-level bottling. There is good energy, but naturally not quite the textural breadth of the top wines.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e90 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical details:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eWhile this first release is drawn from a single vintage, next year's 2017 base will include 60% reserve wine. As always, the classic Egly manifesto applies here: old vines and low yields; hand-harvesting of fully ripe fruit; no inoculation; long lees aging; no fining or filtration and low dosage. One difference here is that the wine was fermented and aged exclusively in tank. The wine spent 36 months on lees and was disgorged with two grams per litre in July 2020.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the house\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are few growers in champagne with the attention to detail and unashamed passion for producing wines of distinction. Egly-Ouriet (pronounced\u003cem\u003e Egg-lee Ou-ri-yay)\u003c\/em\u003e is based in the grand cru village of Ambonnay, famed for its pinot noir fruit. It is run by the skillful, Francis Egly who practices biodynamic and organic principals in his vineyards which span, Bouzy and Verzenay. Francis makes up a handful of highly talented and terroir-driven producers along with the likes of Anselme Selosse, Larmandier-Bernier and Vouette et Sorbée. These are wines first and he produces deep, powerful and intense styles of champagne. His minimum ageing is around 48-60 months (as declared on his informative back label) for his non-vintage wines, allowing time to express the inner strength and purity. If you’ve never heard of Egly-Ouriet before, you are in for a treat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Few producers can equal Francis Egly in skill and experience, and larger houses cannot hope to emulate the cultivation norms…” Michel Bettane, The World's Greatest Wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e"}
