Champagne Henri Giraud stands as the oldest Champagne house still under the ownership of its founding family, the Giraud-Hemart family. With a legacy of vine farming in Ayis, they have become a distinguished wine producer celebrated for crafting exceptional Champagnes. Henri Giraud embodies excellence through meticulous vineyard management, traditional winemaking techniques, and an unwavering commitment to producing wines that elegantly capture the essence of their terroir with finesse and sophistication.
Winemaking Process: Henri Giraud puts the best round and in the bottle. This Ratafia is based on a 20-year-old Solera which gives it its slightly oxidative side, think Madeira. Sweet only survives by the grace of sufficient acids and that is also the case here. What a fantastic discovery!
