The production of Henriot's Brut Souverain champagne
Henriot Brut Souverain is made from a blend of 45% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay, and 15% Meunier. These three iconic Champagne grape varieties are selected from 29 different crus, each bringing its own 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 stored to enrich the blend.
A minimum of three years' aging in the Henriot cellars allows the aromas to develop and harmonize, resulting in a wine of great complexity. The dosage, less than 7g/L, guarantees finesse and lightness.
