Henri Giraud, Argonne Rose Ay Grand Cru 2011

Description

Argonne Rose was born in a small wine barrel picked and made in the Chatrices forest in the winter of 2002, and also carefully selected the best wines of ARGONNE in 2004. And the result of blending with several liters of extraordinary Ay Grand Cru red Henri Giraud. Therefore, the family limited production of 328 bottles is a true testament to the creativity of our winery's male and female team members. Beyond time, reshape colors and emotions. The bottle of ARGONNE ROSE is exposed, with rose gold patterns embroidered on it, making it stand out particularly. The mysterious guardian, with its diamond-engraved clasp resembling a wedding ring, retains its privacy and locks in the secrets of top-quality champagne. When you approach this extraordinary work of art, all rationality fades away, revealing a brand-new emotion towards wine.

About the Producer

In 1625, François Hémart settled in the village of Aÿ and began to produce champagne. Today Claude Giraud, son of Henri Giraud and the 12th generation of the family, presides over the estate’s destiny and produces the Giraud champagnes in Aÿ.

Over 1000 years, there are only 323 vineyards in the area and Aÿ Grand Cru is the exemplar of all Grand Cru, at the same time here grows the best Pinot Noir. Claude Giraud, 12th generation of the Giraud-Hémart family, today presides over the destiny of this Champagne House.
