Vinous: 96 Points

The NV Extra Brut V.P. Grand Cru (Vieillissement Prolongé) is a rich textured Champagne that expresses all of the natural intensity gained after having spent eight years on its lees. Baked apple tart pastry spice chamomile and lightly honeyed notes infuse the V.P. with tremendous flavor complexity to fill out its broad expansive frame. It is a wine of remarkable depth and vinous intensity. In a word: superb. Disgorged: July 2020. (Drink between 2020-2030)

As usual the latest disgorgement of Egly's NV Extra-Brut Grand Cru V.P. this year based on the 2015 vintage complemented by reserve wines from 2014 and 2013 is one of the highlights of the range. Wafting from the glass with aromas of pear green apple freshly baked bread crushed mint honeycomb white flowers and praline it's medium to full-bodied fleshy and layered with a racy and concentrated core a pretty pinpoint mousse and a long saline finish.
