Established in 1930, Egly-Ouriet is a fourth generation, family-run champagne producer currently overseen by Francis Egly. The estate covers approximately 9 hectares of vineyards which are mostly Grand Cru plots in Ambonnay, Bouzy and Verzenay. All the cuvées go through extended ageing on the lees and large proportions of most wines are aged in oak barrels prior to the secondary fermentation in bottle. This is the 2011 vintage of their flagship champagne, which was disgorged in July 2020 with only 1g/L dosage.

The 2011 Brut Millésime Grand Cru is a very pretty wine, especially within the context of the year. Bright floral notes meld into hints of lemon confit, tangerine oil, dried flowers, sage and pastry. There is terrific freshness to the 2011, although not quite the dimension of the very best years. Even so, this is very clearly one of the finest 2011s readers will come across. I would not push my luck on aging, but there is so much to like and admire here. Francis Egly and his team clearly got the very best out of the year. Disgorged: July, 2020.Antonio Galloni1st November 2020
