Egly-Ouriet’s Brut Millésime Grand Cru isn’t just Champagne—it’s an experience. Sourced from old-vine Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in Ambonnay, it’s aged longer, disgorged later, and delivers way more power and presence than most vintage Champagnes even dream of.

The 2012 vintage is rich and structured, with the depth and ripeness that made the year so legendary. Expect layers of roasted orchard fruit, toasted brioche, spice, and chalky minerality, all wrapped in a creamy but tension-filled frame. There’s weight, but also drive—it’s Champagne you could serve with dinner or drink like a top-tier white Burgundy.

Disgorged after extended lees aging and finished Extra Brut, this is Egly firing on all cylinders. For fans of serious, cellar-worthy Champagne with texture and soul, the 2012 is an absolute knockout.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 98

"The 2012 Brut Millésime Grand Cru is a Champagne of tremendous finesse and nuance, with the Chardonnay really driving the balance today. Chalk, white pepper, mint, sage and dried pear are some of the notes that come alive in the glass. Readers will find a brilliant, finely cut Champagne endowed with tremendous energy, especially for the year. This is pure class." -Antonio Galloni

Robert Parker

RP 99

"Broad and powerful, Egly's 2012 Brut Grand Cru Millésime is a serious, vinous Champagne somewhat reminiscent of his brilliant 2002. Delivering complex aromas of pear, honeycomb, orange oil, sweet stone fruits, praline and freshly baked bread, it's full-bodied, deep and muscular, with a multidimensional core of fruit, racy acids and a long, resonant finish. Complex and compelling, readers will have a hard time choosing between the power and texture of 2012 and the quintessentially elegant, seamless 2013. Both are benchmarks for what contemporary Champagne can achieve." -William Kelley

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
