Antonio Galloni

"The 2015 Extra Brut Millésime Grand Cru is an unqualified success from Egly-Ouriet in a vintage that has proven to be uneven throughout Champagne. Citrus peel, white flowers, sage and white pepper abound. There’s gorgeous freshness and tension, with none of the vegetal notes found at many addresses. The 2015 doesn't quite have the stature of some prior vintages, but it is supremely delicious and inviting. Impeccable." —Antonio Galloni

"From a sunny vintage in which the harvest—commencing relatively late, on September 20—proved ultimately rewarding, Egly’s 2015 Grand Cru Millésime has turned out remarkably elegant. A classic blend of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay from Ambonnay, it was disgorged in October 2024 with a dosage of one gram per liter—significantly lower than the 2008 edition, when Egly needed to temper the pronounced acidity. The wine bursts from the glass with an evocative bouquet of pear, red plum and fresh bread, mingling with vibrant citrus nuances. On the palate, it is deep, full-bodied and layered, showcasing remarkable concentration and a crystalline core of fruit. A bright spine of acidity and abundant chalky extract provide both structure and sensation of freshness, culminating in a persistent, reverberating finish. While this vintage is occasionally marked by subtle vegetal tones—attributable to incomplete ripening under hydric stress—this cuvée exhibits none of those elements. As Francis Egly notes, “It was all about the harvest date, and we certainly didn’t rush to pick the grapes.” Fine-boned and effortlessly graceful, this small release possesses all the attributes necessary for a long evolution." —Kristaps Karklins

More about Egly-Ouriet

Francis Egly’s stunning wines have become this scarce for a reason. For four generations the Egly family has farmed their old-vine Grand Cru vineyards in Ambonnay, Bouzy and Verzenay. When Francis took over the family estate in the 1980s, Champagne was still deep in its industrial farming era. He chose a different path: organic farming, replanting with massal selections, restricting yields, harvesting ripe fruit and fermenting and aging in oak barrels. The wines spend years sur lattes, in most cases at least 48 months with some far longer, and are bottled with just a touch of dosage. The result is Champagne with remarkable power and depth, beautifully concentrated fruit and incredibly textural detail.

Back in the day, Egly’s approach was nothing short of radical. Along with other iconic growers of his generation like Anselme Selosse and Olivier Collin (Ulysse Collin), Francis was instrumental in transforming our understanding of what Champagne could be and in carving a path for the grower Champagne movement itself.

And critics place Egly-Ouriet at the very highest levels. William Kelley calls Francis “the most precise and meticulous winemaker in Champagne,” while Antonio Galloni places the domaine “at the very top of the pecking order in Champagne today.” Kristaps Karklins of The Wine Advocate writes that “this 20-hectare domaine continues to refine and improve, producing wines of intensity and power without the weight… these wines number among the best in Montagne de Reims, particularly the exceptional Blanc de Noirs Les Crayères and the Millésime.”

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!
