Origin

Produced in the Champagne region of France, specifically from the Vrigny village located in the Montagne de Reims subregion. Egly-Ouriet is a renowned grower Champagne house known for its artisanal approach and terroir expression.

Variety

This Brut Champagne is primarily composed of Pinot Noir grapes sourced from the Les Vignes de Vrigny vineyard, highlighting the character of this single vineyard site.
