Bailly-Lapierre 2005 Egarade Brut (Crémant de Bourgogne)

Country: France / Egarade Brut
Variety: Champagne Blend Burgundy
Winery: Bailly-Lapierre / Crémant de Bourgogne

Egarade means a “mysterious evening stroll,” according to the producer. Perhaps the idea is that you lose track of time in this wine. A blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, it is rich and full-bodied with a good weight of white and green fruits and a final nervy texture and acidity.
