Maison Egly-Ouriet – The Essence of Champagne Terroir
A benchmark among grower Champagnes, Maison Egly-Ouriet has long been revered for its deep respect for terroir. Based in Ambonnay, one of the most prestigious Grand Cru villages in the Montagne de Reims, the house is led by Francis Egly, who has elevated it to cult status among enthusiasts and connoisseurs.
Its 17-hectare vineyard, primarily planted with Pinot Noir, thrives in chalky soils that impart power, depth, and elegance to its wines. Committed to sustainability, Egly-Ouriet practices low-intervention viticulture, ensuring low yields and optimal grape maturity to fully express the character of each plot.
The house is renowned for its meticulous winemaking: fermentation in oak barrels, extended aging on lees (far beyond Champagne norms), and no malolactic fermentation to preserve freshness and structure. This results in intensely complex Champagnes, offering a rich texture and unmistakable vinous character.
Among its iconic cuvées, the Brut Grand Cru showcases the pure essence of its terroir, while the legendary Les Crayères Vieilles Vignes, a 100% Pinot Noir from century-old vines, is a true collector’s gem. With an uncompromising philosophy and limited production, Egly-Ouriet epitomizes the excellence of terroir-driven Champagne, where every bottle tells a story of authenticity and passion.
Larmandier-Bernier Vieille Vigne du Levant comes from an exceptional plot in a place called “Bourron du Levant” facing south-east. The vines are between 56 and over 80 years old. The deep roots and the diversity of the old vines contribute to the complexity of the wine. They are, like all the vineyards, cultivated naturally to obtain the perfect maturity.
Bruno Paillard Dosage Zéro is a selection from the first pressing of the three grape varieties and for the majority vinified in small oak barrels. The “reserve wines” account for half of the blend. The aging is extended well beyond the legal duration: 3 to 4 years in bottle "on the lees" followed by 6 months of rest after disgorging. Dosage: zero.
Moët & Chandon Grand Vintage is a free creation of the Cellar Master, from a selection of the most remarkable wines produced during a single year. The Grand Vintage 2016 is the reflection of a harvest of black grapes of exceptional quality. They revealed a remarkable maturity, with a powerful and fruity nose as well as a fleshy final note.
Piper-Heidsieck Essentiel Blanc de Blancs focuses on the emblematic terroirs planted with the House's Chardonnay to produce a wine whose elegance, fruit and structure illustrate the unfailing link between the Champagne vineyard and Piper-Heidsieck.
Savart L’Ouverture is the first wine in the Savart range, made only with Pinot Noir. Partly vinified in wood to gain in complexity and roundness, this is a great aperitif Champagne.
Etienne Calsac Les Revenants is an extremely rare and original Cuvée because it is made from forgotten grape varieties: Pinot Blanc, Petit Meslier and Arbane. These 3 grape varieties were planted on a plot of the Domaine: “Les Fours” located in Sézannais.
Discover L’Ouverture, the signature cuvée of Frédéric Savart, one of the most sought-after growers of Montagne de Reims. Crafted exclusively from Pinot Noir sourced from Premier Cru vineyards in Écueil, this champagne perfectly embodies the estate’s philosophy: meticulous vineyard work, low yields, and an uncompromising respect for the purity of the fruit.
