From this winery
  • Start up year: 1808
In 1808, Apolline, the widow of Nicolas Henriot, took over the wine estate and founded the House of Henriot, spreading its reputation to the greatest royal courts in Europe. In 1880, Marie Marguet married Paul Henriot, bringing with her some of the best Chardonnay plots on the Côte des Blancs hillsides: the style of the House's wines was born. The Henriot family has been deploying its wine-producing expertise and conquering new markets worldwide for eight generations. Etienne, Nicolas, Joseph and Gilles are the great names of this genealogy. Read more
