【Rating】

James Suckling 96 pts

Tight, almost austere. Very chalky and mineral, showing strawberries and fresh apples with tarte tatin complexity. Violets, ginger and vibrant citrus as well. Medium-bodied with pinprick bubbles and some vinous character on the structured palate. Depth, energy and singed-bread flavors. Refined finish. 70% pinot noir and 30% chardonnay.

【Winery】

Egly-Ouriet is hailed as one of the pioneers of grower Champagne, representing a small, independent producer that advocates for estate-grown and estate-bottled wines. Its Champagnes are highly esteemed by collectors and connoisseurs for their distinctive character, depth, exceptional aging potential, and emphasis on expressing the terroir of individual vineyard plots. The winery has received the highest accolades from wine legend Robert Parker and major French professional publications. Champagne expert Tyson Stelzer also rated it as a perfect-scoring estate, placing it among renowned houses such as Krug, Salon, and Bollinger—making it the only grower Champagne producer to receive such an honor.

Founded in 1930, the estate is now in its fourth generation of family leadership. In 1981, Francis Egly completed his studies and military service before joining his father Michel full-time at the domaine. The 1990 vintage—Francis’s first experience of fully ripened grapes—proved deeply inspiring to him. Around the same time, his encounter with influential French wine critic Michel Bettane played a pivotal role in shaping Egly-Ouriet’s future. Encouraged by Bettane, the estate began bottling still white and red wines and introduced oak barrel fermentation for its white wines. It also started experimenting with winemaking techniques more commonly associated with Burgundy, aiming to better express the unique flavors and characteristics of Champagne terroir.

【Region】

Domaine d'Aigle-Ori spans 12 hectares of vineyards, primarily situated within the renowned Montagne de Reims appellation of Champagne. This includes the premier cru villages of Ambonnay and Bouzy on the southern slopes, and Verzenay on the northern slopes. The region's predominantly chalky soils provide exceptional drainage, imparting distinctive mineral characteristics to the wines. The estate's vines average 40 years of age and are cultivated using low-intervention methods. The estate is progressively transitioning to organic farming practices to enhance the natural expression of the terroir.

【Winemaking】

Francis Egly is renowned for his meticulous attention to detail in both viticulture and winemaking. He abandoned the chemical fertilizers used in the past, adopting Burgundy vineyard cultivation methods that utilize organic fertilizers and enforce stricter management of grape growth and sufficient ripeness. Grapes are hand-harvested at peak ripeness and whole-cluster pressed in refrigerated, gentle presses to prevent oxidation. Juice ferments with indigenous yeasts, partly in French oak barrels and partly in vats. Malolactic fermentation is adjusted according to the vintage's requirements. The wine undergoes extended lees aging, lasting a minimum of three to four years, enhancing complexity and smoothness—distinguishing it from thinner commercial champagnes. Before bottling, only 2–4 g/L of dosage is added to adjust flavor, preserving the estate's ideal of pure, balanced style. In 1996, Francis boldly pioneered the use of new oak barrels for primary fermentation. With guidance from his friend Dominique Laurent, owner of a premier Burgundy estate, approximately 15% new barrels were employed. The wine aged in these barrels for 8-10 months before being bottled unfiltered and undecanted, with a minimum of 36 months on the lees.

This approach reveals the most natural expression of Pinot Noir grown in the village of Ambonnay: rich minerality, elegant acidity, concentrated fruit flavors, and a full-bodied structure. Francis Egly once stated: "Whether the cuvée succeeds or fails, I must understand why. My champagne is not an industrial product. My mission is to seize every rare opportunity to vividly capture Ambonnay's terroir, culture, and climate within each bottle." Through its commitment to quality, respect for terroir, and innovation in organic practices, Egly-Ouriet has cemented its position as a premier name in the world of Champagne.
