However, it is only since current head Claude Giraud took over that the wines have been released under the family name. An annual production of around 250,000 bottles is sourced from 10 hectares (25 acres) of estate vineyards, spread over 35 plots, plus fruit bought mostly from family and friends. The flagship release is the rich, voluptuous Fût de Chêne, a Pinot Noir-dominant Champagne blend. Aside from the Blanc de Blancs and the Code Noir Blanc de Noirs, the white wines are typically 70-percent Pinot Noir with 30-percent Chardonnay. Use of oak is a feature of all cuvées except the standard Esprit de Giraud. The Blanc de Blancs features just a small proportion of oak-aged Chardonnay, while the base wine for the Hommage sees six months in oak barrels. The Pinot Noir for the Code Noir is fermented and aged in Argonne oak, as is the range-topping Fût de Chêne vintage wine.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-07-25T13:22:22-04:00","created_at":"2023-07-23T13:47:47-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","Other_Wine","Producer_Champagne Henri Giraud","Region_Champagne","RK2207","Source_Hedonism0723","Type_Sparkling Wine","Varietal_Champagne Blend"],"price":1961300,"price_min":1961300,"price_max":1961300,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":43047359905930,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"1996 | Champagne Henri Giraud | Fut de Chene","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":1961300,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/38_17d6b848-44a6-4268-8534-abe952955f10.jpg?v=1690134523"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/38_17d6b848-44a6-4268-8534-abe952955f10.jpg?v=1690134523","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"1996 | Champagne Henri Giraud | Fut de Chene at CaskCartel.com","id":24831478136970,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.386,"height":329,"width":127,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/38_17d6b848-44a6-4268-8534-abe952955f10.jpg?v=1690134523"},"aspect_ratio":0.386,"height":329,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/38_17d6b848-44a6-4268-8534-abe952955f10.jpg?v=1690134523","width":127}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eSparkling Wine: 1996 | Champagne Henri Giraud | Fut de Chene\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarm, smoky notes meld into an expressive core of fruit.
