A house with serious history, Henriot was founded in 1808 by the young widow, Apolline Henriot who took her vineyards in the heart of the fabled Montagne de Reims and used them as the foundation of a champagne house and dynasty. The house currently farms 30 hectares of its own vines and works with growers across another 65. This close relationship to the soil and the vine is unusual in a larger house, and means that Henriot has much greater control and can make significant adjustments to drive towards even greater quality and to preserve the essence of champagne in a changing world. **We will be joined by Corentin Bazetoux, Vineyard and Winemaking Manager, for an evening exploring Henriot, its vineyards and its wines.** On the night, we will be tasting: Henriot Brut Souverain Henriot Blanc Souverain Henriot Brut Rosé Henriot L'inattendue Avize 2016 Henriot Cuvée Hemera 2013 Henriot Cuvée des Enchanteleurs 2015 The ticket price is £54 (+ £3 meetup/paypal fees), and I have reserved 8 places for our group. **Please note that Meetup now charge an additional fee to attendees on top of the price which the Organiser sets.
