Brut Souverain
Henriot | Brut
The Henriot Brut Souverain is an excellent spontaneous companion to fresh fish and seafood. A menu that's simple and works beautifully: Scallops with lemon and salt, sea bass and dorade grilled simply, asparagus, eggplant and broccoli with lemon, chili and salt.
Why the Henriot?
Assemblage: 45% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay, 15% Meunier. 29 Crus united – from Montagne de Reims to Côte des Blancs. Reserve wines: 30-50% provide depth and consistency. Aging: more than 3 years on lees for complexity. Dosage: under 6 g/L – beautifully dry, but with structure.
The fresh acidity and minerality perfectly capture the citrus notes of the scallops. Sometimes the best pairings are the ones you don't overthink.
