ÉGOÏSTE MAGNUM
2017
The prestige cuvées are the crown jewels of every champagne house: they are blended from the best base wines from the finest vintages, aged much longer compared to the non vintage champagnes, in order to provide the most beautiful result in terms of complexity and sophistication.
We introduced our first prestige cuvée from the 2017 vintage in 2023. Its Magnum version, compared to the 0.75 bottle, following our philosophy, spent an extra year on lees. The 2017 vintage is based on the balance of furmint and chardonnay, and 11% of the base wine was fermented and aged in barrel. Its rich character was emphasized with a lower dosage. Complexity, lovely texture, leesy notes, a bit of toast and soft mousse.
Serve chilled at 8-9 C and consume at a temperature of 10-11 C.
Blend: 50 % furmint, 50 % chardonnay
Ageing: 72 months
Dosage: 5 gramm/litre
