Egly-Ouriet Rose Grand Cru NV AOC 0.75l

Egly-Ouriet Rosé Grand Cru NV AOC 0.75l is a rosé champagne born in the heart of the Montagne de Reims, among the Grand Cru vineyards of Ambonnay, where Pinot Noir lends structure, tension, and a vibrant minerality that permeates every sip. This non-vintage version offers a contemporary interpretation of the rosé of champagne, capable of accompanying both the start of a dinner and moments of contemplation in the glass.

The history of the Egly-Ouriet house is a family story, rooted in the land and dedicated to direct vineyard management and bottling. The company's identity is defined by a deep connection to the terroir and a commitment to producing with a gentle touch, allowing the Grand Cru grapes to take the final step. In the cellar, care is taken with minimal external interference: native yeasts, maturation processes that enhance the ripeness of the grapes, and a carefully calibrated blend to maintain identity and freshness.

The production philosophy and approach to winemaking translate into a practice that prioritizes precision in the vineyard, natural fermentation times, and aging on the lees, enhancing complexity without sacrificing linear elegance. The vineyards are tended with methods designed to maintain soil health and biodiversity, and attention to harvest is carefully coordinated to ensure fruit ripeness and purity before gentle pressing, which extracts only the essence of the aromatic parameters.

The distinctive features of this Rosé Grand Cru lie in the blend of Pinot Noir selected from the most prestigious parcels, the use of reserve wines for stylistic consistency, and a winemaking process that strives for a clean drink yet one pervaded by a trail of complexity. The color is pale yet intense, with a fine perlage that brings the palate to a silky texture, and the bouquet opens with notes of red fruit, raspberry, and a subtle citrus note, enriched with hints of bread crust and fresh yeast that recall the origins of its maturation.

When tasted, Egly-Ouriet Rosé Grand Cru NV offers a vertical palate: initial freshness, a savory character that supports a long finish, and a delicate structure that creates a persistent and mineral finish. It's an evocative wine that lends itself to refined culinary pairings, from seafood appetizers to shellfish dishes to flavorful white meats, always displaying the cleanliness and dimensionality that distinguish the house's signature.

In the Egly-Ouriet producer’s range, this Rosé Grand Cru occupies a prominent position: not only as a product designed to celebrate special moments, but above all as a testament to how the Maison interprets the Grand Cru terroir through the lens of rosé, with a profile that remains incisive over time.

In closing, Egly-Ouriet Rose Grand Cru NV AOC 0.75l embodies the STELT philosophy: authenticity, depth and longevity, offering an experience that persists beyond the initial emotion and remains as a lasting sensory chapter in the story of a land, a home and a shared passion.
