Francis Egly is at the top of the small grower elite, with his estate located in the heart of the Côte de Noirs, surrounded by 100% grand cru Pinot Noir vineyards. Part of what makes Egly so special is the lands on which his grapes flourish. The grand cru "Vieillissment Prolongé," a wine that spends more than 70 months on its lees. Few Champagne houses can match the quality and originality of Egly wines.
