CHAMPAGNE HENRIOT

 

Lanson was founded in 1760 and is one of the oldest ‘Grandes Marques’.

 

For the Non-Vintage wines, the grapes used have a substantially high average rating of over 96% on the ‘Echelle des
Crus’, being sourced for the most part from Premier Cru or even Grand Cru vineyard sites.
Three regal grape varieties are blended to produce the standard NV Lanson wines. Pinot Noir, giving body and
structure; Pinot Meunier, much sought after for its roundness and fruitiness; and Chardonnay, a symbol of finesse,
lightness and elegance. For the Vintage Champagnes, only the top 100% classified Grands Crus are selected.
Lanson is one of the very few Champagne Houses which avoids the malolactic fermentation, year on year and for all its
styles. This practise retains the freshness and fruitiness of each cuvée and enables the wines to keep longer. The Lanson
tradition allows the Crus and Reserve wines to develop fully and to better express their wealth of aromas and flavours.

The Henriot family has been in the area since the 16th Century and it was in 1808 that they began to sell what had been until then a very private Champagne. This was the birth of the House which is still today managed by those who bear its name.

From the choice of the grapes to the bottling, the Henriot family is completely involved in the making of the Champagne which is to correspond to their idea of perfection. For nearly two centuries and seven generations, the family has patiently kept its secrets, enriched by tradition and savoir-faire. It is above all at the time of blending, the highlight of Champagne’s tradition, that the House exercises its skill to enhance the character of the grapes which have been rigorously selected from the best vineyards, above all the Chardonnay, which is at the heart of the Henriot blends.

The grapes from each variety, each vineyard and even each plot are vinified separately and ensure an exceptionally vast range of wines to reproduce this inimitable style every year. The cellar master and members of the family will exercise their skill to produce a delicate, subtle mixture to obtain the perfect blend which, several years later, will give birth to the unique Champagne Henriot cuvées, famed for their elegance, refinement and exquisite lightness.
