The Champagne Blanc Souverain from Henriot presents as an elegant, restrained expression of French sparkling wine. It shows fine, persistent bubbles and a straw-yellow colour. On the nose it offers a balanced profile with hints of white-fleshed fruit, ripe citrus and white flowers, accompanied by light nuances of bread crust and almond that contribute to a discreet complexity. On the palate it retains freshness and liveliness, with balanced acidity, medium body and a harmonious finish that allows fruity echoes.

It works well as a refined aperitif but also pairs with dishes of delicate fish, shellfish and light vegetable preparations. Recommended serving temperature is around 8–10 °C, in flutes or wider glasses to enhance its aromas. It also pairs with international dishes and mild fresh cheeses. Ideal for understated toasts at informal dinners, while remaining sufficiently elegant for more polished convivial occasions.

Discover the story and wines of Henriot (Maison Henriot).

Maison de Champagne founded in Reims in 1808 by Apolline Henriot; still family-run and producer of the historic non‑vintage cuvée “Brut Souverain.” ([champagne-henriot.com](https://www.champagne-henriot.com/fr/histoire))
Region: Champagne (Reims)
Country: France
Winery history
The Henriot family settled in Champagne as early as 1640; Apolline Henriot founded the Maison in 1808. Over time the holdings expanded to include crus from the Côte des Blancs (e.g. Avize, Le Mesnil‑sur‑Oger, Chouilly) as well as the Montagne de Reims (Verzy, Verzenay, Mailly). Keeping reserve wines for blends dates back to the House’s origins; recent initiatives include the “Alliance Terroirs” program (from 2020).

Production philosophy
A pursuit of elegance, finesse and terroir expression; a balanced style with significant Chardonnay presence in the cuvées and systematic use of reserve wines to ensure continuity and complexity. Commitment to soil knowledge and adaptive viticultural practices (Alliance Terroirs project). ([champagne-henriot.com](https://www.champagne-henriot.com/en/collection/henriot-brut-souverain))
Terroir and vineyards
Vineyards and sourcing in Champagne: Montagne de Reims (including Verzy, Verzenay, Mailly‑Champagne) and the Côte des Blancs (Avize, Le Mesnil‑sur‑Oger, Chouilly); the Brut Souverain cuvée is assembled from about 29 crus. ([champagne-henriot.com](https://www.champagne-henriot.com/fr/histoire))
