The 2015 Egly-Ouriet Millésime Grand Cru is a Champagne blend that has garnered significant praise from wine critics. This vintage exhibits a bright straw color and a complex aromatic profile. Jeb Dunnuck describes it as "ripe and fruity," with notes of "black cherries, fresh violets, savory saline, and a hint of umami richness" (jebdunnuck.com). The wine is known for being full-bodied, yet devoid of phenolic bitterness, presenting instead a pure, juicy, and inviting palate that concludes with a refined mousse and a delicate note of toast.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate awards this wine an impressive 97+ score, highlighting its remarkable elegance and structure from a sunny vintage. This wine combines 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay from Ambonnay, presenting an "evocative bouquet of pear, red plum and fresh bread, mingling with vibrant citrus nuances." The palate is described as "deep, full-bodied and layered," with a bright spine of acidity and abundant chalky extract (Robert Parker's Wine Advocate). The 2015 vintage stands out for its fine-boned and graceful nature, poised for long-term evolution.

Antonio Galloni of Vinous echoes these sentiments, offering another excellent review with a score of 96. He notes the wine's "gorgeous freshness and tension," with flavors of "citrus peel, white flowers, sage, and white pepper." While acknowledging that the 2015 vintage may not possess the stature of some prior years, Galloni emphasizes its "supremely delicious and inviting" character (Vinous). The wine's dosage is a minimal one gram per liter, enhancing its crisp profile.

Overall, the 2015 Egly-Ouriet Millésime Grand Cru is lauded for its elegance, complexity, and potential for aging, making it a noteworthy choice for Champagne enthusiasts.
