Egly-Ouriet
Family-run for four generations, the estate is now managed by Francis Egly, for whom the grape is everything. He cultivates 10 ha of grand cru in Ambonnay, Verzenay and Bouzy (mainly pinot noir), and 2 ha of pinot meunier in Vrigny (premier cru). His champagnes are highly precise, velvety and spicy. His "Vieilles Vignes" blanc de noirs is literally magical, and the red coteaux-champenois d'Ambonnay is always at the top of the region. The range has expanded in recent years with the acquisition of vines on the Saint-Thierry massif, north-west of Reims, where the soils are sandier and the definition of the wine is different.
