WINE DESCRIPTION

Egly-Ouriet Coteaux Champenois Cuvée des Grands Côtés Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru Ambonnay Rouge is a premium red wine produced by Egly-Ouriet, a highly respected grower-producer located in the Champagne region of France. The wine is made from Pinot Noir grapes grown in the estate's Coteaux Champenois vineyard, which benefits from the area's unique terroir, characterized by chalky soils and a cool continental climate. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including aging in French oak barrels, which adds complexity and depth to the wine. The resulting wine is full-bodied and structured, with notes of black cherry, plum, and a hint of spice, making it an ideal choice for pairing with roasted meats, game, and strong cheeses.
