Tasting profile
A complex, aromatic Champagne with fine perlage and a creamy, rounded mouthfeel, balancing lemony acidity with red apple, brioche, almond, and pastry notes from extended lees aging. Reviewers describe it as mellow and nectar-like yet crisp and mineral, full enough to stand alone or pair with rich fare like caviar and duck.

Summary
Egly-Ouriet Champagne Extra Brut Grand Cru is a sparkling wine from Champagne Grand Cru 'Ambonnay', France. It sits in the $120-and-up band, on a lowest observed 750 ml price of $150.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 362 other sparkling wines from France, not against the corpus as a whole. 366 Vivino reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 366 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this bottle against every other wine those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — four stars from someone who hands out fives means something very different from four stars from someone who rarely goes above three. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a star average.
- Global percentile
- Where Egly-Ouriet Champagne Extra Brut Grand Cru lands against every wine we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — wines of the same type from the same country. A Chilean red is judged against Chilean reds, not against Champagne. Ranked against Sparkling · Francia (363 wines).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each wine keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 366.
