It has been nearly 400 years since Maison Henri Giraud acquired vineyards in the village of Ay in Champagne in the early 17th century. The vineyards, which produce high-quality grapes, are now run by Claude Giraud, the 12th generation owner. Although only 250,000 bottles are produced annually, the champagne is carefully crafted to take advantage of the characteristics of the grapes in Ay.

This is the champagne "ARGONNE", which is made with more attention than ever to the oak barrels from the Argonne Forest.

To enjoy Argonne, we recommend a well-filled flute (or even a large goblet-shaped wine glass), as this will allow you to fully appreciate the wine's power and complexity, and it will best come into its own at a temperature of 10°C or above.

Henri Giraud

A “phantom champagne” that has been loved by only a few connoisseurs.

A ``phantom champagne'' that was enjoyed by the upper classes of Europe, such as England and Monaco. The sophisticated taste produced from high-quality grapes and traditional manufacturing methods has long graced the glamorous banquets of European society. What makes Henri Giraud unique is his commitment to grapes grown in the village of Ay, which produces high-quality Pinot Noir. It has a rich, elegant, and noble taste with a sense of finesse.



Henri Giraud has approximately 8 hectares of his own vineyards in the village of Ay, all of which are certified Grand Cru. Through traditional manufacturing methods and innovative techniques that are still stubbornly maintained, the charm of Pinot Noir from Ai Village is brought out to its fullest.
