Egly-Ouriet Coteaux Champenois Ambonnay Rouge "Cuvee des Grands Cotes" Vieilles Vignes (2020)

Aromas of raspberries, minerals, wildflowers, light spice. Silky yet weighty; texture reminds of Chambolle-Musigny. Flavors suggest red berries, light vanilla, minerals. Very long.

Very Rare!

Low-yielding estate vines, rated grand cru, are located in Ambonnay. Winemaker Francis Egly selects fruit from older vines mid-slope from a series of parcels that are in the form of a natural amphitheater, all essentially facing south. Silky yet weighty; the wine’s texture reminds of Chambolle-Musigny. Flavors suggest red berries, light vanilla, crushed stones; a symphony of precise aroma and flavor.
