EGLY OURIET Rosé Grand Cru Extra Brut
Description:
Egly-Ouriet's Rosé Grand Cru Extra Brut is a pinnacle expression of Champagne, crafted primarily from Pinot Noir grapes (typically used for reds) grown in prized Grand Cru vineyards. This "Blanc de Noirs" approach yields a unique rosé with depth and character. "Extra Brut" indicates minimal sugar dosage (under 6 g/L), emphasizing a dry, crisp style. Renowned critics praise its complexity: Wine Spectator: Lauded for its "vibrant acidity" and "layered flavors". James Suckling: Admired for its "elegant structure" and "mineral notes". Expect a captivating bouquet of red fruits like strawberry and raspberry, complemented by floral and citrusy hints. The palate is lively and focused, with refreshing acidity and a touch of minerality. This exceptional rosé pairs beautifully with seafood, poultry, or simply enjoyed on its own.
Pairing:
Pair with grilled salmon, summer berry salad with goat cheese, or a selection of sushi and sashimi.

Reviews
17 Pt – Jancis Robinson Tested October 12th, 2015
48 months on lees, disgorged July 2015. Plenty of red fruit on the nose – mostly the orange-skinned Victoria plum. Tight, dry-tasting and quite vinous on the palate. Half wine – half champagne. Satisfying depth and length but with freshness and fine mousse. Very good with some potential to age in bottle.
