Description
The Hommage au Pinot Noir cuvée from Henri Giraud is a champagne of remarkable elegance. It is a cuvée that can be enjoyed as an aperitif, but also as an accompaniment to fine cuisine.
Pinot Noir is a founding grape variety in the history of Champagne, but also of the Henri Giraud house. It is a grape variety that brings great complexity, freshness, and elegance.
Hommage au Pinot Noir is vinified and aged for 12 months on the lees in small oak barrels, then for 6 months on fine lees. Finally, after bottling, it spends at least 3 years in the cellars of the Henri Giraud house to develop its aromatic palette.
This champagne has a bright, intense golden color. Its bubbles are fine, lively, and numerous.
On the nose, this cuvée asserts its origins. All the aromatic complexity of Pinot Noir is present, with notes of yellow fruit, spices, and a more mineral touch from the Aÿ terroir.
On the palate, this is an intense cuvée, which opens with a clean, straightforward attack, then unfolds its full range of aromas. The texture of the wine is silky and elegant. Finally, the finish evokes chalk and a hint of salinity.
A very fine cuvée!
