Henri Giraud 'Argonne' Ay Grand Cru Brut 2015

Giraud makes some of the most unique, individualistic wines in Champagne. All of the wines bear the unmistakable stamp of the Grand Cru vineyards of Ay. At their best, the Giraud Champagnes offer incredible intensity, class and balance.

Review

"Golden colour with intense aromas of lemon, tar, oak, bark, mushroom, and hints of salted caramel. Full-bodied and so powerful with an energy and drive as it spreads across the palate. It's like Batard-Montrachet with tiny bubbles. This is a very great wine for great dishes at the table. 100% new barrels from selected parcels of the Argonne forest." - 98pts, James Suckling
