Egly Ouriet Grand Cru Blanc de Noirs Les Crayeres NV
The emblematic wine from Francis Egly and the one that first brought him
international acclaim. Egly has learnt through experience that he is
better able to express this magnificent terroir more completely when he blends
two vintages together. This cuvée is a 50% blend of 2010 and 50%
of 2009.
The fruit comes from a single, brilliant terroir known as
Les Crayères, and the vines here were planted in 1946 (so now 70 years old). The
soil is hardly 30cm deep, then it's chalk, hundreds of metres down.The old vines
are deeply rooted in this chalk subsoil, giving the wine its classic, mineral
vibrancy, woven through the powerful, textured Pinot fruit.
