Henriot Blanc de Blancs Brut NV — Grand & Premier Cru Chardonnay from an Independent House

My Wine Man on Henriot. Henriot is one of Champagne's best-kept secrets — a house with a history stretching back to 1808, family-owned and independent throughout. The house owns vineyards in both the Cote des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims, giving it access to Grand Cru and Premier Cru Chardonnay fruit of exceptional quality. The Blanc de Blancs is the purest expression of this philosophy.

Tasting Notes

Pale gold with fine persistent bubbles. Lemon zest, white peach, and apricot lead, followed by toasty notes of brioche, roasted hazelnut, and a subtle spice. Fresh and refined with a beautifully balanced tension between vibrant citrus fruit and toasty nutty complexity. Creamy mousse, elegant texture, and everything in perfect proportion.

Food Pairing

Henriot Blanc de Blancs pairs beautifully with refined seafood. We love it with Hokkaido Sashimi-Grade Sea Scallops from My Meat Man — seared in brown butter with lemon, the sweet plump scallops are a magnificent match for the wine's Grand Cru Chardonnay precision, toasty brioche complexity, and mineral-fresh finish.
