Egly Ouriet Grand Cru Millésime 2005 is a refined vintage expression from one of Champagne’s most esteemed producers. Sourced exclusively from Grand Cru vineyards, this wine reveals an aromatic profile of baked apples, lemon curd, brioche and subtle notes of spice. With a full-bodied structure, it showcases a creamy texture supported by well-integrated acidity and fine bubbles.

Disgorged in July 2014, Francis Egly`s 2005 Brut Grand Cru Millésime is a brilliant wine in this middling vintage, bursting from the glass with aromas of orange oil, buttered toast, pear, praline and subtle spices. Full-bodied, muscular and vinous, it`s layered and multidimensional, with a rich core of fruit, succulent acids and chalky structuring extract, complemented by a pinpoint mousse. This is a gourmand, gastronomic Champagne in its prime today. - William Kelley

The 2005 Brut Grand Cru Millésime is soft, forward and quite expressive. There is plenty of freshness in the glass, but the wine's mid-weight personality and overall lack of complexity vis-à-vis the best wines here both make me think it is a wine to drink now and over the next handful of years. The lithe, delicate finish is attractive, if a bit out of character for Egly-Ouriet, where the wines are usually richer. Candied lemon, dried apricot, white flowers and mint are some of the signatures. Disgorged: July 2014.Antonio Galloni1st November 2015
