Esprit de Giraud Brut NV [Henri Giraud]

Chardonnay / Pinot Noir



The finest Champagne house virtually no one has ever heard of. Traditionally made, wood-aged Champagnes. Full-bodied, and tasting more like a honeyed white Burgundy with bubbles than a Champagne, this is a stunning effort. Unique, full-throttle, and fresh!


Only two "oak-aged" Champagnes in France. The other is Krug at more than twice the price!
