Argonne Ay Grand Cru 2012 - Henri Giraud (with wooden box)

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.

"Revisited after an additional year in bottle, the 2012 Brut Grand Cru Aÿ Argonne continues to show brilliantly, unwinding in the glass with notes of golden orchard fruit, dried citrus peel, tarte tatin, warm spices, walnuts and toasted bread. Full-bodied, deep and concentrated, it's vinous and multidimensional, with superb concentration, racy acids and a delicate pinpoint mousse. Seamless and integrated, it's still an infant and will reward further bottle age."

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
