    Overview

    Henri Giraud PR 90-21


    The fourth release in the PR series: 18, 19, 20 and now PR 21-90.
     
    The formula remains the same. Base wine is drawn from the Giraud soleras which began in 1990, this edition was bottled in 2021. After three years of lees-ageing the wine was disgorged and released onto the market.
     
    The solera is heavily weighted towards Pinot Noir: 80% PN, 20% CH, all of which is fermented in tight-grained, Argonne oak barrels.
     
    Tasting Notes:
    PR 90-21 introduces amazing energy to a great white wine and opens up a whole new dimension : one in which space and time are suspended, and in which complexity, fruit, and spirituality intertwine with shimmering wreaths of orange blossom shot through with flashes of chalk and bitter minerality.

    It channels this fantastic energy, born of the fusion of Champagne's hundred-million-year-old twin marine terroirs - Aÿ's chalk and Argonne's gaize - into a long, saline river, perfumed with subtle aromas. Here emotion, carried to its height, borders on the mystical.
