Argonne Ay Grand Cru 2013 - Henri Giraud

Tasting notes

Each bottle is numbered and contained in a beautiful wooden box with a dedication.

90% pinot noir and 10% chardonnay, all from the village of Aÿ and fermented and aged in new wood for 15 months. Then aged in bottle. Absolutely superb structure and phenomenal complexity.

"The 2013 Brut Grand Cru Aÿ Argonne is the latest in a series of superb releases from Giraud. Unwinding in the glass with notes of buttered toast, crisp yellow orchard fruit, honeycomb, warm spices and ripe stone fruits, it's full-bodied, deep and vinous, with a layered core of concentrated fruit, incisive acids and an elegant pearly mousse. (...)."

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

The Giraud house is one of the few houses that conduct primary fermentations in oak.

The overall production is limited to 250,000 bottles a year, making the Giraud Champagne stand apart from the major producers. 

Described by leading wine critic Robert Parker as "the finest Champagne house virtually no one has ever heard of". The reason for this being that until the 1990s their wines were only sold directly to discerning, well-informed private customers in France and Italy
