Gault&Millau's review 2018

The complex, juicy nose, with notes of Sicilian lemon and exotic fruit, already expresses the distinctive scent of white chalk. On the palate, the chiselled, extra-fine bubbles perfectly convey the distinguished flavours of chalk. Perfectly dry, the finish lingers on minerality. A champagne with a strong personality to be served as an aperitif.

Henri Giraud

This family of winegrowers, which belongs to the closed circle of the Union des maisons de champagne (UMC), has been established in the village of Aÿ since the 17th century, and currently cultivates 15 ha of Grand Cru. The company has had its Argonne oak barrels reproduced, giving its champagnes a distinctive elegance and woody discretion. Vinification in egg-shaped vats facilitates the expression of terroirs and the vibrancy of the wines. It's an approach to be followed closely, initiated by Claude Giraud, the dynamic gourmet who presided over the defense of Champagne ratafias and now sets the example with a splendid liqueur.
