Henri Giraud Fût de Chene 2000 is a vintage barrel-fermented Champagne from Grand Cru vineyards in Aÿ. The Giraud-Hémart family has cultivated grapes in the Champagne region since 1625 but only started to produce wine for themselves in 1990. Henri Giraud’s top cuvée, Fût de Chêne, is a Pinot Noir-dominant blend with a smaller proportion of Chardonnay, using the ‘Petit Pinot’ clone of Pinot Noir which has been grown solely in Aÿ since 1804.
