      Description

      Fût de Chêne 2000 from Henri Giraud is a blend of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay, entirely from the Grand Cru terroir of Aÿ. This superlative champagne is cold settled, then passed in oak barrels for 12 months.

      It’s a cuvee that draws its strength, its richness and its elegance from the renowned hillsides of Aÿ, and finds its maturity in the gentle embrace of small barrels made of oak from the forest of Argonne.

      The special bottle “Origine” used for the Henri Giraud Fût de Chêne 2000 is engraved, numbered and closed with a clasp of the type used before wire muzzles were introduced to maintain the cork in place.
