2019 Egly-Ouriet Les Premices Assemblage 0,75 Liter

The Egly-Ouriet Les Prémices Assemblage 2019 is a refined non-vintage Champagne from Ambonnay, crafted by Egly-Ouriet. Blending Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier from Premier Cru vineyards, it displays a pale gold hue with fine bubbles and a vibrant nose of green apple, citrus, and white flowers, with hints of brioche and subtle minerality. The palate is fresh and balanced, with crisp acidity, a delicate mousse, and a smooth, approachable finish. With a low dosage (1-3 g/L) and ~3-4 years of lees aging, it’s designed for earlier drinking but can evolve for 3-5 years, developing richer notes. Perfect with seafood, appetizers, or soft cheeses, it’s a versatile choice for casual sipping or gatherings. This Les Prémices reflects Egly-Ouriet’s commitment to crafting accessible yet terroir-driven Champagnes, offering a refined option for enthusiasts seeking freshness and elegance in a newer cuvée with the house’s signature quality.
