Description
Symbolising precision and balance, Brut Souverain by Henriot carries the quintessential expression of the great Champagne terroirs. The exceptionally high proportion of Chardonnay (50%), balanced to perfection with Pinot (45% Pinot Noir and 5% Pinot Meunier) can be thanked for the unique character of this Champagne. More than 25 cru wines from the finest Champagne terroirs in Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims make up the blend, together with 30% reserve wines. Each year Laurent Fresnet, Henriot’s Cellar Master, is able to create the ultimate blend with outstanding consistency to replicated Henriot’s unique signature style. Each bottle is then left to rest for more than 3 years in the cool, calm surrounds of our cellars in Reims.
Tasting Notes Very lively mousse. Textbook NV. Lemon fruit, mineral undertones, toasted brioche and excellent bottle age, an impressive finish.

***93/100 Falstaff, Tasted 2021***
The nose opens with salty, almost miso-like savouriness. With air a real sense of ripe Mirabelle comes through. The palate is rich and fresh and quite a few notches up from your normal brut sans année. A lovely autolytic depth, elegant foam and real savouriness pervade this. Bravo.
