Henri Giraud Hommage au Pinot Noir Champagne NV 75cl
Henri Giraud Hommage au Pinot Noir Champagne pays homage to Pinot Noir as grandfather of Syrah and father of Chardonnay which, in the eyes of Henri Giraud Champagne House, deserves respect, humility and time.
This wine draws back to its origins and pays tribute to the grape variety. After ageing in oak barrels for 24 months, the wine then ages for a further 6 months on fine lees creating incredibly ripe flavours.
Champagne Henri Giraud is the oldest Champagne house still owned by its founding family – the Giraud-Hémart family has farmed vines at Aÿ since 1625. However, it is only since current head Claude Giraud took over that the wines have been released under the family name.
