At the Égly family, we work as a family. Children Clémence and Charles, both in the vineyard and in the winery, are following in their parents' footsteps. The history continues, to our great satisfaction. The vineyard is composed primarily of old vines on the superb terroirs of Bouzy and Ambonnay. 17 ares of old Chardonnay, planted in 1902 in Verzy, were recently acquired: we eagerly await the first bottled vintage.
In the cellar, the champagnes are vinified in oak barrels using indigenous yeasts. Malolactic fermentation is no longer required, the wines are neither fined nor filtered before fermentation, and are aged on average four years, or more for the finest vintages. The entire range is undeniably consistent, with perfect maturity and a very graceful palate.

99/100 Robert Parker - The Wine Advocate (tasted in 2021): "The 2002 Brut Grand Cru Vintage is spectacular today, rising from the glass with a complex bouquet of smoky pear, lemon, mandarin orange, and peach mingled with smoke, praline, crushed mint, and notes of wet chalk. Full-bodied, layered, and seamless, it is deep and surprisingly complete, with a textural attack that develops into a concentrated core framed by a vibrant backbone of acidity and underpinned by chalky extract. Long and penetrating, this is one of the finest vintages Francis Egly has produced to date."
