Food Pairings

Henri Giraud Champagnes are versatile at the table because of their richness balanced with acidity:

Shellfish & seafood — oysters, lobster, scallops.
Creamy dishes — risotto, smoked salmon pasta.
Rich savoury mains — roasted poultry, pork with mushroom sauce.
Aged cheeses — Comté, aged Brie.

Their texture and depth make them excellent not just as aperitifs but throughout a meal — especially with foods that complement oak-derived complexity.

Technical Notes

Henri Giraud Esprit (sometimes labelled Esprit Nature Brut) is a core non-vintage Champagne from Champagne Henri Giraud that replaces the older Esprit Brut cuvée and showcases the house’s signature blend of terroir, oak influence and vinification style.

Blend: ~80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay — reflecting Henri Giraud’s focus on Pinot Noir and the rich character of the Aÿ terroir.

Reserve Wines: About 50% of the blend comes from perpetual reserve stocks (older wines kept back to add depth and consistency).

Oak Influence: Around half of the wine is matured in small oak barrels made from Argonne Forest oak — a rare practice in Champagne that adds texture, richness and complexity.

Lees Ageing: It’s typically aged on the lees for at least 2 years, contributing creaminess and depth to the texture.
