Egly Ouriet Grand Cru Millésime 2008 is a vintage Champagne crafted from grapes sourced exclusively from Ambonnay, a revered Grand Cru village. The wine is produced by Francis Egly, who has been at the helm of this revered maison since 1998. With a dosage of just five grams per litre, this expression demonstrates a restrained sweetness. It showcases aromas of citrus fruit, toasted bread and hints of oak. The palate offers a structured body, firm acidity and an impressive length, indicating its potential for extended ageing.
