The house, founded in Reims 1808 (217 years ago) (1808), produces both vintage and non-vintage cuvée.
Henriot has been under family ownership since 1994 when Joseph Henriot left Veuve Clicquot to manage the estate.
[1] Henriot's cellar master Laurent Fresnet, who was named "Sparkling Winemaker of the Year" by International Wine Challenge in 2015 and 2016, has said: What makes our champagne so special is that it is sourced from beautiful terroirs, mostly Grand & Premier Cru vineyards.
Thanks to our independent status, I can dedicate the time and care they require to craft the most luminous champagnes and perpetuate the unique style of the House.
[This quote needs a citation]The Henriot family also owns the producers Bouchard Père & Fils, William Fèvre and Château de Poncié in Burgundy and Chablis.
