Description

Egly-Ouriet Brut Tradition is the iconic NV cuvée of the house, made from 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay, exclusively from Grand Cru vineyards. The grapes ferment spontaneously (50% in wood, 50% in stainless steel tanks), after which the wine ages for 48 months on the lees, with minimal dosage (1–3 g/l Brut Nature) – stylistically powerful, yet elegant and terroir-expressive.

Origin in Focus

Champagne

Champagne in north-eastern France is the home of the world’s most famous sparkling wine. The cool climate, limestone and chalk soils, and a long tradition of bottle fermentation shape its unmistakable style: tension, finesse and characteristic minerality. The main grape varieties are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier.
