Description

Argonne est la cuvée haut de gamme du domaine Henri Giraud. Ce champagne ample et riche est élevé 12 mois en barrique (30% de bois neuf). Il voit le jour sur le grand terroir crayeux d'Aÿ. Argonne est un assemblage de pinot noir (75%) et de chardonnay qui tient son nom de la forêt où la maison Giraud achète les chênes qui deviendront ses fûts. C'est une cuvée très rare.

Notes de dégustation

Vinous

The 2014 Argonne is the most delicate, nuanced and sculpted version of this Champagne yet. Then again, this cool, late-ripening year yielded wines more of energy and understatement than of power. That's exactly what comes through here. Lemon confit, mint, spice, pastry and a kiss of French oak are all beautifully knit together. I won't be at all surprised if the 2014 gains body in time. Today, it is so evocative and beautiful, not to mention a fine effort in a very challenging year. Disgorged: December 10, 2021. - AG 05/2021

Suckling

Beautiful interplay of vivacity and silkiness. Vibrant and phenolic, yet also supple with long, caressing layers of crushed almond, brown butter, apricot, praline, white chocolate and hints of sage. Really opens up. Fantastic integration. 100% new barrels from selected parcels of the Argonne forest. Drink or hold. - JS 06/2022
