Henriot Blanc De Blancs Champagne 750ml

Henriot Blanc De Blancs Champagne 750ml

Description: Henriot Blanc De Blancs. Winemaker Notes:. Sparkling, crystalline pale gold with slight green highlights. Abundant effervescence, with fine, delicate bubbles. Pure, concentrated and expressive, with floral (honeysuckle, orange flower, linden), fruity (lemon, dried apricot, almond) and pastry aromas, followed by spicy notes. The attack is dynamic, full and powerful, with aromas of lightly toasted brioche, quince jelly, and acacia honey. The clean, delicious finish develops on a light menthol note and shows excellent length. Lovely as an aperitif or as an accompaniment to dishes such as foie gras terrine, roasted chicken, lobster rolls, smoked salmon or sushi. Critical Acclaim:. 93 points - Wilfred Wong of Wine.com. "commentary: The Henriot Blanc de Blancs Champagne is beautiful and refined. Tasting Notes: This wine is delicate. Its subtle aromas and flavors of crisp, tart apple and racy minerality should pair it well with a platter of raw Olympic oysters.". 93 points - Decanter. "Subtle notions of toast have a lovely tinge of lemon and roasted hazelnut on the nose. Lively mousse on a tender palate bubbles with toasty, nutty autolysis. As it warms up, the mousse softens and shows a sunny roundness of yellow stone fruit that sits well with the toasty yeast notes. Drinking Window 2020 - 2025". 93 points - Tasting Panel. "This all-Chardonnay assemblage is made up of 30% reserve wines, mainly from the Cote des Blancs. After an introduction of honeyed floral aromas and delicate pastry scents, the fine bubbles dissipate quickly to release notes of key lime, orange blossom, toasty egg bread, and an array of citrus and stone fruit. It finishes on a mineral note-breezy and lean". 92 points - Wine Spectator. "a toasty edge of roasted hazelnut and subtle smoke is enmeshed with flavors of Asian pear, lemon sorbet and candied ginger in this elegant Champagne. Fresh and mouthwatering, with a finely detailed mousse. Drink now through 2023.". 92 points - Wine Enthusiast. "Chardonnay from the Cote des Blancs yields up its typical crisp and mineral texture over the ripeness of the Henriot style. The Champagne is balanced, fruity with fine acidity to match and the bottling is ready to drink.". 90 points - Wine & Spirits. "This wine's light chamomile scent and spiced apple flavors give it a pure chardonnay profile. That, plus its powerful leesy grip, led one taster to describe it as "Chablis on steroids." It's rich and creamy, taking on fresh depths of pale chalk and pea-tendril flavors as it opens. The blend, including 40 percent reserve wines, is seamless.". 90 points - James Suckling. "a nicely captured reductive edge here, this holds white peach and apple aromas fresh with dried white flowers and a very gentle nutty, cashewy thread. The palate's bright, creamy and fruity; it throws big fruit flavors upwards with crunchy acidity.". 90 points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate. "The latest rendition of Henriot's Nv Blanc de Blancs is showing well, opening in the glass with notes of nectarine, citrus oil, toasted bread and light reduction. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, with a generous core of fruit, lively acids and a pretty pinpoint mousse, it concludes with a saline finish. This is a comparatively rich iteration of this cuve, and it should pick up additional complexity with age.". 750ml
