V.P. Vieillissement Prolongé Extra brut Grand Cru

Information

Description

V.P., short for Vieillissement Prolongé, places maturation time at the centre of Egly-Ouriet’s Champagne making. This Grand Cru cuvée combines Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, with the former predominating and reserve wines contributing to the blend. Its particularly long stay in the cellar is the feature that defines its identity, accompanied by restrained dosage. In the estate’s philosophy, extended contact with the lees contributes complexity and structure. The wine seeks a meeting of power and elegance while retaining the freshness and precision that characterise the estate’s style.
