The NV Brut Grand Cru Aÿ Fût de Chêne MV16 is showing beautifully, offering up a complex bouquet of pear, orange oil, buttered toast, toasted almonds, smoke and honeycomb. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and vinous, with a deep core of fruit, bright girdling acids and a classy pinpoint mousse, it's long and penetrating, with a seamless, elegant profile.

2011 Champagne Henri Giraud Brut Grand Cru Aÿ Argonne
シャンパーニュ アンリ・ジローは、樽を作るための樫の木を1本1本選び抜き、それぞれの木材が森の中のどの区画で伐採されたものか地理的に完全に把握。そして樽に区画名の焼き印を入れることで、森のテロワールまで完璧にトレースしています。樽の火入れも当主や醸造長が樽職人と一緒にコントロールし、その年のブドウ、それぞれのキュヴェに合わせるべき樽を作ります。また一方でONF(Office National des Forets/フランス森林局)とパートナーシップを組み、森の保存や調査を行っています。

Based on the 2017 vintage (complemented with some 50% from the house's perpetual reserve) and disgorged in January 2020, the latest rendition of the NV Brut Esprit Nature is showing very well, mingling aromas of yellow orchard fruit and peach with nuances of toasted bread, candied peel, white flowers, clear honey and fresh almonds. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, it's elegantly vinous, with lively acids and a long, delicately oak-inflected finish. Fermented in barrels, some 20% of the blend derives from domaine holdings.
