The Champagne 'Hommage au Pinot Noir' by Henri Giraud is a Blanc de Noirs that celebrates the emblematic grape of Aÿ. This wine carries the legacy of the cuvée Hommage au François Hémart, in a version entirely made from Pinot Noir. The aging involves eleven months on whole lees in Argonne barrels, six months in tank on fine lees, and at least three years in bottle. Aromas of apricot, mirabelle plum, white flowers, and toasted brioche precede a straightforward and creamy sip, flavorful and fresh, with a long and mineral finish. To be served with grilled lobster
Colour:
Golden yellow with amber reflections, lively perlage
Scent:
Sunny, with apricot, plum, jasmine and linden, with a finish of almond and pastry
Taste:
