Champagne Henri Giraud Argonne 2013 is more than just wine – it is a reflection of a philosophy where tradition, nature, and precision come together in perfect harmony. Crafted from carefully selected grapes from Grand Cru vineyards, this champagne represents the pinnacle of Henri Giraud’s craftsmanship.


Composed of 90% Pinot Noir and 10% Chardonnay, Argonne 2013 is aged for one year in meticulously made oak barrels sourced from the historic Argonne forest, followed by seven years of maturation on the lees. This unique process brings exceptional complexity, depth, and structure to the wine.


The bouquet reveals rich aromas of baked apples, yellow stone fruits, honey, smoke, and warm spices. On the palate, it is powerful yet precise – a full-bodied champagne with remarkable freshness, silky textures, and a long, mineral-driven finish. This is a champagne with soul – complex, elegant, and bold.


It pairs beautifully with lobster, oysters, foie gras, or any celebration that calls for true exclusivity. Awarded 97 points by both James Suckling and Robert Parker, Henri Giraud Argonne 2013 is a wine for true connoisseurs who recognize artistry in every glass.
