Note di degustazione
Egly's 2011 Brut Grand Cru Millésime may not have the volume of the 2012 or the authority of the 2013, but it is a very successful wine in its own right and clearly one of at most two or three candidates for the title of Champagne of the vintage in this challenging year. Offering up attractive aromas of golden orchard fruit, praline, honeycomb and subtle hints of mocha, it's medium to full-bodied, pillowy and vinous, with chalky structuring extract, racy acids and a pretty pinpoint mousse, concluding with an impressively persistent finish.

The 2011 Brut Millésime Grand Cru is a very pretty wine, especially within the context of the year. Bright floral notes meld into hints of lemon confit, tangerine oil, dried flowers, sage and pastry. There is terrific freshness to the 2011, although not quite the dimension of the very best years. Even so, this is very clearly one of the finest 2011s readers will come across. I would not push my luck on aging, but there is so much to like and admire here. Francis Egly and his team clearly got the very best out of the year. Disgorged: July, 2020.
