How to serve it
Tasting notes
Deep gold with a fine mousse. Complex aromas of ripe apple, quince, toasted nuts, brioche and a chalky note. The palate is vinous and powerful yet taut, with very low dosage and a long, saline finish. Serve well chilled in a tulip glass to enjoy the aromas and the fine bubbles at their best.
About this wine
Egly-Ouriet is a family estate in Ambonnay, one of the great Grand Cru villages of the Montagne de Reims, led by Francis Egly. It is regarded as one of the finest grower producers in Champagne, with meticulous vineyard work and low yields.
"V.P." stands for Vieillissement Prolongé, extended ageing: this Grand Cru Extra Brut, led by Pinot Noir with Chardonnay, rests for many years on its lees before disgorgement, gaining exceptional depth while the low dosage keeps it precise. Production is very limited.
