Champagne Henri Giraud, Arg̈onne Aÿ Grand Cru Brut 2011
Henri Giraud's Arg̈onne cuvée comes from the house's most prized vineyard site in Aÿ Grand Cru, aged entirely in their signature Argonne oak barrels. This is Champagne with serious intention: fifteen years on the lees have built layers of honeyed complexity while keeping that essential Aÿ mineral spine intact. The 2011 is sitting in that sweet spot where youthful energy meets mature sophistication. The oak integration is seamless now, adding warmth rather than weight, and the mousse has that creamy persistence that only comes with proper age. Please note that this wine is offered without its original wooden box.
Champagne Pol Roger Sir Winston Churchill 1.5L (Magnum) 2015
The relationship between Champagne Pol Roger and Sir Winston Churchill dates back to a providential meeting at a luncheon given by the British Ambassador to France some months after the liberation of Paris at which was served the sumptuous 1928 vintage of Pol Roger. Attending the lunch was the beautiful Odette Pol-Roger as well as the Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, with whom she struck up an instant rapport. A friendship was born which continued until Churchill’s death, creating links between the Pol-Roger and Churchill families which are still as strong to this day.
