Egly-Ouriet Les Vignes de Vrigny Premier Cru Brut NV| 750ml

94 Wine Spectator
Bright and deeply golden in color, with a rich nose of roasted nut and a fine, pointillist bead carrying notes of dried raspberry, white truffle, quince paste, chamomile and oyster shell. Soft orange peel acidity and a tang of salinity keep this fresh on the palate and drive the long, creamy finish. Reminiscent of Spain's Viña Gravonia Rioja Blanco, but with bubbles.

Made from 50% reserve wine with the base 2018, the NV Champagne Les Vignes de Vrigny is fruity and fresh with great energy in its notes of raspberry, strawberry, and wet stone. The palate is medium-bodied and inviting, with fresh yeasty bread dough and a granular. chalky texture. Entirely Meunier, it’s long and has a spine of acidity.

The NV Brut Les Vignes de Vrigny 1er Cru is gorgeous in the way it balances the natural depth of Meunier with real energy and vibrancy. Dried pear, spice and crushed flowers all open in the glass, but what impresses me about this release of Egly's pure Meunier is its translucence and finesse. The Vignes de Vrigny is so expressive and gorgeous in this release. Disgorged: July, 2020. Drinking window: 2021 - 2030

91 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Based on the 2018 vintage, Egly's newly disgorged NV Brut Premier Cru Les Vignes de Vrigny bursts with aromas of white peach, crisp orchard fruit, apple blossom and wet stones. Medium to full-bodied, ample and vibrant, with a pure, seamless profile and a precise, saline finish, it's an immensely charming wine produced from Pinot Meunier vinified in tank.

From five acres of pinot meunier on chalk soils in Vrigny, this wine offer scents of apple blossoms, cider apples and an herbal note of tomato leaf. Its pale strawberry flavor is soft and heady. For chicken-liver mousse.
