The Making of Henriot Brut Souverain Champagne

The creation of the Henriot Brut Souverain cuvée is based on a blend of 45% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay, and 15% Meunier. These three emblematic grape varieties of Champagne are selected from 29 different crus, each contributing its unique character to the wine. Approximately 50 to 70% of the wines come from the current year, while 30 to 50% are from reserve wines, carefully preserved to enrich the blend.

The minimum aging of 3 years in the cellars of the Henriot house allows the aromas to develop and harmonize, resulting in a wine of great complexity. The dosage, less than 7g/L, ensures finesse and lightness.
