Champagne Henri Giraud Esprit Nature NV Ay

An exquisitely wrought wine from the finest champagne house nobody has heard of, to quote a leading critic. Its delicate florality recalls Selosse, while the 80% pinot noir in the blend, combined with a high percentage of reserve wines and oak fermentation, gestures towards Krug. But it's less than half the price of either! A relative bargain.
