Champagne Egly-Ouriet — Winery in Ambonnay
For connoisseurs, the name Egly-Ouriet rings a bell. Eater called it "the wine-geekiest grower Champagne of all." Francis Egly is the fourth generation, but it's his radical approach that made the domaine world-famous. Biodynamic, spontaneous fermentation, 3 to 4 years of ageing in wooden barrels: three to four times longer than most champagne makers. The wines are now served in Singapore Airlines business class. Three stars from La Revue du Vin de France. One of Andrew Jefford's top 5 champagne producers in The New France. Grand Cru vineyards in Ambonnay, Verzenay and Bouzy, and Pinot Meunier plots in Vrigny.
