Champagne Henriot Blanc de Blancs NV

Champagne, FranceHenriot's vineyards have been around since the 1700s, but they didn't begin producing sparkling wine until 1808, when Apolline Henriot began to make wine from her family's lands. 2/3 of this BdB comes from 1er and GC fruit, and employs 30-50% reserve wines, including partial perpetual. It spent 4 years on lees, and was dosed with 7 g/L. Pouring a deeper hue, this mouthfilling wine is layered with toasted popcorn, brioche, vanilla wafer intercepted with green apple and bright lemon. A richer, expansive style for contemplation, or enjoying at the dinner table.Tasted: 27 October 2024Tasted by: Prices:
