Henri Giraud, MV Ay Grand Cru MV18

About the Bubble The NV Brut Grand Cru Aÿ Fût de Chêne MV16 is showing beautifully, offering up a complex bouquet of pear, orange oil, buttered toast, toasted almonds, smoke and honeycomb. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and vinous, with a deep core of fruit, bright girdling acids and a classy pinpoint mousse, it's long and penetrating, with a seamless, elegant profile.
