Henri Giraud Champagne Dame-Jane Rose Brut NV

$11999

Giraud's NV Brut Henri Giraud Rosé is endowed with lovely overall balance and depth. Creamy and expansive on the palate, the Brut Rosé is absolutely exquisite from the first taste. Hints of rose petal and crushed red berries add the final shades of nuance. This is a very pretty, inviting Rosé from Giraud. Disgorged March 24, 2014.

Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes on the lees on Italian Amphora made with Terracotta and Sand.

"The NV Rosé Rose Dame-Jane is light and airy in the glass. Crushed flowers, sweet crushed berries, white pepper and mint are all beautifully lifted. Translucent and gracious, the Dame-Jane is quite a departure for a house that was previously known for rich, opulent Champagnes. The Dame-Jane is done with an 'Oeil de Perdrix' base in which Pinot is given a short time on the skins for added color and structure. Right before bottling, touches of Chardonnay and still Pinot are added to fine-tune the blend. The Dame-Jane is aged entirely in sandstone terracotta, an approach that works beautifully. This release is based on 2017, with 40% reserve wines." —Vinous

"The latest release of Giraud's NV Brut Rosé Dame-Jane is showing very well, unfurling from the glass with complex aromas of red plums, cinnamon, orange zest, warm bran and smoke. On the palate, it's full-bodied, broad and textural, with all the house's signature vinosity, displaying superb depth at the core, ripe but racy acids and beautiful balance despite its muscular, textural style, concluding with a sapid finish. This is another success." —Robert Parker

"There's a plush creaminess to this rich and balanced rosé, as well as a pleasing juiciness that enlivens the flavors of plumped cherry, grilled nut and tangerine peel, with a tangy hint of fleur de sel. Lingers on the well-cut finish."

More about Henri Giraud

Go to a reception at the French embassy in Washington D.C., and of course the French want to put their very best foot forward. So you should pay attention to the Champagne they’re serving. It turns out to be Henri Giraud.

We have not been invited to gala parties at the French embassy, and we encountered this Champagne through another means: as part of a fabulous private collection. We tried one bottle and we loved it. We sold other bottles to a couple of clients and they loved them too.

So word is starting to spread….but it’s taken a long time! This is a house that has been around since the 1600s, though it’s only in the 1990s that they really upped their quality game, joining the ranks of highly prized boutique houses like Jacquesson or Billecart Salmon.

Of those two other reference points, Giraud is closer to Jacquesson in its desire to experiment and find new ways to really push the quality envelope. Thus, they make their barrels from wood growing in local Champagne forests. They experiment with different materials for their wine-making vessels, including terracotta and even sandstone.

The style is one of power, luxury and finesse, echoing something from Bollinger, Krug or perhaps Egly Ouriet. This makes sense, given they are based in Ay, known for producing some of the best and most powerful Pinot Noir in Champagne. Of course, they produce a range of different wines, all offering nuances on this stylistic and terroir backdrop.
