Description
Established in 1808, Champagne Henriot is one of the rare Champagne houses that is completely independent, and which has remained in the hands of the same family throughout its long and illustrious history.
Since its founding, the Maison has been driven by the passion of individuals who have captured the essence of Champagne’s true terroir, passing this unique expertise from one generation to another.
Tasting Notes: Red and dark berry fruit aromas of raspberry, strawberry and crunchy cherry, followed by freshly squeezed lemon, pink grapefruit and mandarin orange. Vegetal notes then follow in succession, offering blackcurrant bud and cloves, together with delicate iris-scented powder and finishing on delicious notes of candid fruits. Well-balanced on the palate, revealing incredible, unashamed persistence. Attractive balsamic and floral flavours pave the way for spicy notes, in a wave of great freshness. The tasting culminates in a lingering touch of sweetness.
This Rosé champagne allies elegance with intensity in the purest Henriot style. Crafted by adding Pinot Noir red wine to the blend, this Champagne expresses the very best of Montagne de Reims Pinot Noir (50%) and Meunier (10%), while preserving the fresh mineral character of Chardonnay (40%). the grapes are from Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards. Henriot Brut Rosé also contains precious reserve wines which make up 35% of the blend. Every bottle is then left to rest in the cool, calm surrounds of the Henriot cellars for 3 years.

Reviews
"(2021) Henriot's rosé is 50% Pinot Noir grapes from the Montagne de Reims, with 40% Chardonnay and a 10% Pinot Meunier. Reserve wines make up 35% of the blend, which spent three years on the lees and has 9g/l dosage. The colour is a medium-pale bronze/peach, with aromas of small red berries, and a touch of biscuit. In the mouth the mousse is cushiony and rich, but the zestiness of the acidity gives good energy to the wine, the soft fruity character also making it approachable and easy to drink." - 91/100, Tom Cannavan

An attractive red-fruit flavored Champagne with a balanced crisp textured, this bottling is just ready to go. Its fruitiness coupled with the soft texture from the dosage are packed with fruitiness and ripe acidity. Drink now. Roger Voss
