    Description Henri Giraud Blanc de Craie

    Estate

    Henri Giraud is a renowned Champagne house known for its traditional production methods and commitment to quality. It owns carefully selected vineyards in the Champagne region. The house emphasizes the pure expression of Chardonnay in its wines, ensuring finesse and elegance. Its reputation is also built on harmony between terroir and expertise. The house is often recognized with favorable reviews in the Vin de France magazine.

    Vineyard

    Henri Giraud's vineyards are located in the prestigious Champagne region, with careful selection of plots. The calcareous and clay soils promote ripeness and purity of the grapes. Traditional viticultural practices are followed, respecting the environment. The proximity of the vineyards allows for optimal quality control. The temperate climate of the region contributes to well-balanced grapes.

    Wine

    The Henri Giraud Non-Vintage Champagne is a refined sparkling wine mainly made from Chardonnay. Its bubbles are fine and persistent, displaying a pale yellow hue with bright reflections. It offers delicate aromas of white flowers, white-fleshed fruits, and brioche. The palate is elegant, with a fresh and long-lasting finish. This champagne is suitable for various occasions due to its purity and balanced style.

    Vintage

    This champagne is non-vintage, meaning it blends wines from different years to achieve harmony. The house favors this approach to ensure consistency and finesse. The absence of a specific vintage signifies a desire to offer a fresh and balanced product. Assemblies vary, but all remain true to the expression of Chardonnay.

    Vinification & Aging

    The vinification follows traditional methods, with fermentation in stainless steel tanks or barrels to preserve freshness. The secondary fermentation in bottles, typical for champagne, develops fine and elegant bubbles. Aging typically lasts between 15 and 36 months, allowing aromas to fully develop. The house adopts a cautious approach to maintain fruit purity and effervescence finesse. No excessive additions are made to respect the terroir's typicity.
