Encry
Encry produces Champagne from the chalky soils of Champagne, France, drawing on Chardonnay to craft wines of precision and mineral character. The house's portfolio centers on Grand Cru expressions, including the Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Millésime and the Brut Champagne Grand Cru 'Le Mesnil-sur-Oger'—both pure Chardonnay bottlings that reflect the terroir of one of Champagne's most celebrated villages. Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, renowned for its chalk-rich geology, imparts a distinctive salinity and finesse to the wines. Encry's Blanc de Blancs Brut Champagne Grand Cru 'Le Mesnil-sur-Oger' rounds out the core range. Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast have rated these releases, recognizing their structure and balance. The winery's focus on single-varietal, Grand Cru Champagnes underscores a commitment to expression of place rather than broad production.
