Champagne Les Vignes de Vrigny Premier Cru Brut

/100

Vignes de Vrigny 1er Cru er en 100% Pinot Meunier. En sjældenhed. Sjælden i Champagne og endnu sjældnere hos stormesteren Egly, hvis Meunier-druer næsten udelukkende vokser i Vrigny. Denne vin kommer fra en parcel på omkring 2 hektar. 50 år gamle vinstokke, som Francis Eglys kone har arvet. 41 måneder på gæren og kun 1 g/l dosage. Aftappet spontangæret, uraffineret og ufiltreret, som det er sædvanligt hos Egly. Størstedelen af vinene er fra den spændende 2017-årgang, og alene farven skiller sig ud. En vidunderlig ravfarvet nuance, der minder om moden Riesling eller Sauternes, med let orange og karamelfarvede refleksioner. Aromaen viser straks, hvorfor Francis Egly er en af de store producenter. Moden og sublim, kompleks og mineralsk. Let oxiderende aromaer af ristede mandler og sorte nødder samt kandiseret grapefrugt og ananas i kombination med gul fersken og friskskåret Braeburn. Et vidunderligt samspil af frugt, meget indtagende og kraftfuld i munden. Først nu forstår man kompleksiteten i denne vin. Meget mineralsk, salt og krydret med frisk brødskorpe og kandiseret appelsin. Utrolig fængslende og gribende med en fin, elegant perlage. Bestemt ikke en champagne, som man ikke behøver at tænke over. Snarere en vin, der skriger på at blive parret med mad og inviterer drikkeren til at engagere sig i den. 94+/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Champagne Les Vignes de Vrigny Premier Cru Brut

The terrific NV Champagne Les Vignes de Vrigny is a rich, powerful, full-bodied yet incredibly elegant effort that offers a rare mix of both richness and freshness. Plenty of orchard fruits, some stone minerality, a vibrant, seamless mousse, and a crisp finish all make for a viscerally thrilling Champagne that I’m sure will keep for at least another decade. This cuvée is all Pinot Meunier and it shows in the depth and richness on the palate. 92/100

Wine Spectator om: Champagne Les Vignes de Vrigny Premier Cru Brut

Bright and deeply golden in color, with a rich nose of roasted nut and a fine, pointillist bead carrying notes of dried raspberry, white truffle, quince paste, chamomile and oyster shell. Soft orange peel acidity and a tang of salinity keep this fresh on the palate and drive the long, creamy finish. Reminiscent of Spain's Viña Gravonia Rioja Blanco, but with bubbles. Disgorged November 2021. Drink now through 2030. 94/100

Decanter om: Champagne Les Vignes de Vrigny Premier Cru Brut

This cuvée is always such a clear-eyed picture of snappy, fragrant Meunier full of just-ripe apricot, fresh almonds and an almost citric focus on the palate. Based on the 2019 vintage with reserves from 2018 and 2017, there's plenty of fleshy orange ripeness from these two years, but not an inch of fat. This needs at least six months post-disgorgement to really come out of itself. A 100% Meunier from the village of Vrigny in the Petite Montagne de Reims. No oak. 93/100

Suckling om: Champagne Les Vignes de Vrigny Premier Cru Brut

This is a stylish and rich Champagne with peach, orange peel and hints of pie crust character on the nose and palate. Dense and rich yet agile and fresh. A delicious Champagne offering more than just an aperitif. Drink now. 92/100

Parker om: Champagne Les Vignes de Vrigny Premier Cru Brut

The latest rendition of Egly's NV Brut Premier Cru Les Vignes de Vrigny was disgorged in July 2019 with two grams per liter dosage after 36 months on the lees. Offering up a lovely bouquet of golden orchard fruit, dried white flowers, rock salt and a subtle touch of praline, it's medium to full-bodied, elegantly fleshy and incisive, with a deep core of racy but mature fruit, a pinpoint mousse and a penetrating finish. From a parcel of 50-year-old vines in Vrigny inherited by Francis Egly's wife, this is a beautifully elegant wine that makes for a fine introduction to the house style. 92/100

The NV Brut Les Vignes de Vrigny 1er Cru, Egly's 100% Meunier, is positively gorgeous in this release. Warm and resonant, with a real sense of immediacy, the Les Vignes de Vrigny is showing beautifully today. Dried pear, spice, dried flowers and chamomile are all laced together in a Champagne of total class and personality. This release spent 36 months on its lees. Disgorged: July, 2019. 92/100

I dag er Francis Egly en af superstjernerne i Champagne sammen med Selosse, Agrapart og Co. Straks efter at han overtog tøjlerne i 1982, begyndte han selv at modne og aftappe sine champagner.
