Maison Henri Giraud – Champagne Excellence in Service of the Terroir
Since the 17th century, Maison Henri Giraud has embodied boldness and innovation in the heart of Aÿ, one of Champagne’s most prestigious Grands Crus. Blending tradition with modernity, this family-run house crafts its champagnes with a singular philosophy: to elevate the terroir beyond conventions.
A pioneer in aging wines in oak barrels from the Argonne forest, Henri Giraud pushes the boundaries of Champagne expression, producing cuvées of unmatched depth and complexity. Eschewing stainless steel and embracing sustainable practices, each wine unveils a silky texture, captivating aromatic intensity, and vibrant minerality.
From the iconic Esprit Nature to the legendary Fût de Chêne, Henri Giraud champagnes are designed for connoisseurs seeking pure emotion and extraordinary sensory experiences. More than just champagne, each cuvée is a manifesto for a return to the origins of taste.
Billecart-Salmon Brut Réserve is a subtle and airy wine combining balance and harmony. Composed of three Champagne grape varieties from the most beautiful terroirs of the Marne, the Brut Réserve is perfect for an aperitif or throughout a dinner.
This vintage is perfectly balanced, creating a harmonious Cristal. The year 2016 unexpectedly brought a superb balance to Cristal, blending its bright, vibrant character with its grounded, earthy side. It's similar to the nearly perfect balance of past ripe and refined years, following in the footsteps of Champagne's best like 2002, 2008, and 2012. Cristal 2016 is both new...
Krug 2011 is the result of a contrasting and surprising year characterized by its chiseled roundness. The complex blend acquired its balance and finesse during the 13 years spent in aging cellars. An ample, generous and assertive Champagne.
Dom Pérignon Vintage 2012 is a Champagne with explosive harmony: a marriage of intensity, controlled tensions and great contrasts. The final blend reveals a unique Dom Pérignon characteristic of this very special vintage.
Vilmart Les Blanches Voies 2011 is a blend of 100% Premier Cru Chardonnay from sixty-year-old vines (Les Blanches Voies plot). Aging ten months in oak barrels of 228 liters. Quantity limited to 2900 numbered bottles.
The Abyss cuvée is a very unique Champagne which has aged underwater for 1 year. These special aging conditions highlight during the tasting a mineral and chalky signature, reflecting the great terroirs of Champagne.
Savart L’Ouverture is the first wine in the Savart range, made only with Pinot Noir. Partly vinified in wood to gain in complexity and roundness, this is a great aperitif Champagne.
Delamotte Rosé is a great maceration rosé, elegant and structured with Pinot Noirs Grands Crus associated with Chardonnay Grand Cru from Mesnil-sur-Oger. A tailor-made Champagne for the discerning palate.
Henri Giraud Esprit Nature is the cuvée reflecting the House's commitment to the protection of nature and human health. This is a vision of natural wine. Its emblem, the Paper Oak, tells of the fragility of living things but also of man's ability to reconstruct it.
