The Blanc Souverain in magnum format from Maison Henriot presents as an elegant Champagne with good presence, supplied in a gift box that makes it suitable as a present. In the glass it shows fine perlage and an aromatic profile with delicate floral notes and white fruit, supported by discreet freshness. Balanced structure and controlled salinity make the tasting harmonious, with a pleasant, clean finish. The texture is silky and the acidic framework supports the sip without dominating.
Serve well chilled in a flute or sparkling wine glass to best appreciate the aromas and perlage; ideal with seafood starters, fish dishes and convivial moments. The magnum format favors a slower development of the bubbles and is practical for shared meals. The gift box eases storage and presentation, making it a versatile choice for celebratory occasions or as a refined gift. It also pairs well with fresh cheeses.

The winery
Henriot (Maison Henriot)
Champagne (Reims)France
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))
The story
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). ([champagne-henriot.com](https://www.champagne-henriot.com/fr/histoire))
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))
