Tasting notes

A Champagne of depth and grandeur, the 2012 vintage from Egly-Ouriet stands out for its power, complexity, and impeccable balance. Often likened to the outstanding 2002, it opens with a rich aromatic profile of pear, stone fruits, orange oil, honeycomb, praline, and freshly baked bread. The palate is full-bodied and muscular, yet remarkably refined, driven by a vibrant acidity and a finely etched structure. Its long, resonant finish underscores the wine's energy and precision. A brilliant, finely cut vintage that seamlessly combines texture and tension—approachable now, yet built for aging.
