Ambonnay rouge, Cuvée des Gds Côtés, Egly-Ouriet - 2021

Generally speaking, this wine charms with a magnificent nose of fresh rose, mint and pepper, hyper aristocratic, evoking the greatest pinot fin de la Côte de Nuits, with what's more a supremely integrated breeding because it is undetectable. The palate is of the same type, sovereign, voluptuous, all lacy. Extraordinary wine, hyper class, a summit of French pinot noir! Guide Vert RVF : 96/100

Domain

The Egly-Ouriet estate was created after the Second World War, when Francis Egly's grandfather started making wine with 3 hectares of vines in the Ambonnay Grand Cru. His descendants acquired, by purchase or marriage, 9 other hectares, including the magnificent plot and vineyard of Les Crayères. In total, the vineyard covers 10 hectares in the Ambonnay, Bouzy and Verzenay Grand Crus and 2 in the Vrigny Premier Cru. The Egly family practises traditional cultivation with regular ploughing to maintain the soil in Champagne. They do not use insecticides as the whole property is under sexual confusion. Maximum care is taken with the vines, in particular with the trellising and thinning, in order to optimise the maturity of the grapes. The vinification process involves the use of stainless steel as well as non-new wood in varying proportions depending on the cuvée. All the vintages spend a minimum of 3 years in the cellar before being sold, which increases the complexity of the wines thanks to the autolysis of the yeasts, ensures a better ageing potential and also allows a better understanding of the terroirs (the expression becomes stronger with time). The wines thus gain in purity and complexity. Today, with his friend Anselme Selosse, he is perhaps the only producer who can claim the...
