2015Descrizione
Champagne Argonne by Henri Giraud is a unique and exclusive reserve, the pinnacle of production, a rare champagne with numbered bottles.
The distinctive feature of the maison is to use only grapes from the single Grand Cru of Ay, where the cellar is located. Furthermore, since 2016, the producer has undertaken the exclusive use of wood and amphorae for the refinement of its wines.
Mainly Pinot Noir, with a small closure of Chardonnay, this wine is fermented in oak barrels, then rests in the bottle for the second fermentation for at least 72 months, then it is dosed.
In tasting the wine is an intense golden yellow color with very fine perlage. On the nose a rich and intense succession of aromas: ripe fruit with peach, lemon, then notes of pastry with apple pie, brioche and salted caramel, followed by aromatic herbs and a light touch of mint. In the mouth the wine is full-bodied, energetic on the palate, richness and complexity are perceived, reflecting the great potential of the Ay terroir, accompanied by a beautiful salinity, with a very long finish.
A champagne where complexity and drinkability merge and speak in unison. To be uncorked on special occasions, with great aging potential.
