Gault&Millau's review

2023 94/100

This beautiful cuvée is a fine tribute to the Pinot Noir of the village of Aÿ. On the nose, we find aromas of white fruits and brioche. On the palate, the wine is greedy, the barrel ageing making itself felt and accompanying the wine perfectly. A rich, powerful wine with a perfect balance. A great champagne to enjoy with veal sweetbreads and a few chanterelles

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.
