Robert Parker – The Wine Advocate, issue 162 – December 2006. 

This may be the finest Champagne house virtually no one has ever heard of. These traditionally made, wood-aged Champagnes include a luxury cuvee, the Grand Cru Ay Fut de Chene, which is reminiscent of Krug in a slightly less oxidized style. Full-bodied, and tasting more like a honeyed white Burgundy with bubbles than a Champagne, this is a stunning effort. The exquisite, full-throttle, truffle-scented 1996 is fresh, and loaded with concentration : 95 Points. The fully mature 1995 is capable of lasting another 5-8 years : 94 Points. The medium-bodied non-vintage Francois Hemart Grand Cru Ay (floral, chalky, citrus oil and peach blossom scents and flavors abound), this is one of the finest non-vintage cuvees in the marketplace : 93 Points.

For serious luxury, and price tags of over a hundred dollars and more, Dom Pérignon, Krug and Roederer Cristal all make gifts that would thrill even the most hardened wine enthusiast. A new name in luxury champagne to me is Henri Giraud whose 1993 Aÿ Grand Cru in a simple but eye-catching bottle is sumptuously creamy.”

“…the quality of this 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay, 100% grand cru blend shows why the wines of Aÿ have their reputation. Probably the finest 1993 on the market, very limited supply.”
