Description

For Sale – 1 x 75cl bottle of Henriot Champagne Cuvée Hemera 2006.

A stunning and rare Champagne just released from professional storage.

"Full bottle 1,925 g. A cuvée first created by Henriot in 1889, although it went by a different name back then. It's a tribute to the founding crus of the house: three grand cru Pinot Noir vineyards in Montagne de Reims (Verzy, Verzenay and Mailly-Champagne) and three grand cru Chardonnay vineyards in the Côtes des Blancs (Avize, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and Chouilly). The blend always contains an equal proportion of each cru and is always a vintage champagne. 50% Pinot Noir, 50% Chardonnay. Minimum 12 years sur lattes. Dosage 5 g/l. Disgorged in 2020 and kept more than one year in bottle before release. The name changed to Cuvée Hemera (named after the goddess of light) with the 2005 vintage. Previously it was known as Cuvée Baccarat and then Cuvée des Enchanteleurs. Check the weight of that bottle! Very complex nose. Bready and floral, linden and candied lemon peel, hint of peach. Vanilla, lemon curd. Then broad, deep-chested furl of flavours and a power that I can almost feel inside my ribcage like the vibration of a bass speaker, that reminds me of diving under a huge wave in the ocean and hearing the water roil and break above you. Lanolin, beeswax pressed with bitter lemon oils, samphire and pomelo, crushed smoke and a curling wraith of tiny white flowers. Thrilling wine. (TC)"

"Mature and generous nose of baked raspberries, figs, cocoa, honeycomb, marmalade, praline and apricot pie. It’s medium-to full-bodied with vibrant acidity and very creamy bubbles. Saline undertones with lovely salted-caramel notes. Expansive. Equal blend of Grand Cru pinot noir and chardonnay. 5g/l dosage. Drink now or hold."
