The main grape varieties are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. The minimum of breeding is also 15 months for a non-vintage and 36 months for a vintage, which plays on the finesse of bubbles and complexity of aromas. A tip for your special occasions, do not serve it too cold, 8 to 10 degrees seems the optimal temperature to enjoy it well (some prefer it colder, question of taste\u2026) and ideally in a bucket with half water half ice.

Today, we find at its head the three sisters Baron (Claire, Lise and Aline) who share values common, their champagnes being certified High Environmental Value. A tonic champagne with almost crisp acidity and flavors of citrus and hazelnuts, slightly brioche; it is generous on the palate and balanced. This sparkling wine offers us an undeniable pleasure at a very affordable price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Varietal<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"background-color: rgba(136, 136, 136, 0.2);\">Pinot meunier 50%<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"background-color: rgba(136, 136, 136, 0.2);\">Chardonnay 35%<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pinot noir 15%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>SAQ Code:<\/strong> 13618838<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Henriot Brut&nbsp;Souverain<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Henriot-Champagne.jpg\" alt=\"Henriot Champagne\" class=\"wp-image-25351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Henriot-Champagne.jpg 500w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Henriot-Champagne-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Henriot-Champagne-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Henriot-Champagne-114x114.jpg 114w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Henriot-Champagne-170x170.jpg 170w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The family house Henriot has marketed its champagnes for more than 200 years, more precisely in the year 1808. Its aromas of pastry, toast, green apples and white flowers conjugated with very fine bubbles, offers roundness in the mouth and a very acidity refreshing, all with a great balance and perfect harmony. In short it&#8217;s delicious. The Henriot Brut ros\u00e9 and the Henriot Blanc de blancs Brut are other very good choices as well as their excellent vintage vintages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Varietal<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chardonnay 50 %<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pinot noir 50 %<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>SAQ Code:<\/strong> 13828931<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pol Roger Brut R\u00e9serve<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Pol-Roger-Reserve-Champagne-.jpg\" alt=\"Pol Roger Reserve Champagne - Festive Champagnes\" class=\"wp-image-25356\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Pol-Roger-Reserve-Champagne-.jpg 500w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Pol-Roger-Reserve-Champagne--200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Pol-Roger-Reserve-Champagne--100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Pol-Roger-Reserve-Champagne--114x114.jpg 114w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Pol-Roger-Reserve-Champagne--170x170.jpg 170w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pol Roger is a family institution founded in 1849.

Thanks to 4 years of wine aging it is really fresh, complex, balanced, distinctive and long in the palate.

It is a great pairing like the previous champagnes not only with oysters, but also with eggs mimosa and smoked salmon, because the acidity contrasts with the fat of those starters, and the balance will be optimal.

Their range of wines is unique, each with its own history and style. This ros\u00e9 champagne is visually impressive with its salmon-pink color, with a nose reminiscent of the sunny spring thanks to the aromas of fresh and floral red fruits, refreshing acidity; its bubbles are very fine, it is long in the mouth and vinous with a minimum of 5 years of aging on slats, with a slight bitterness in the finish. The rapture is guaranteed. Perfect with a tuna or beef tartare, just like with a slightly raised salmon tataki, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Varietal<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pinot noir 100 %<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>SAQ Code:<\/strong> 158550<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>LCBO Code: <\/strong>158550<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Charles Heidsieck Brut R\u00e9serve<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Charles-Heidsieck-Champagne.jpg\" alt=\"Charles Heidsieck Champagne\" class=\"wp-image-25349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Charles-Heidsieck-Champagne.jpg 500w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Charles-Heidsieck-Champagne-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Charles-Heidsieck-Champagne-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Charles-Heidsieck-Champagne-114x114.jpg 114w, https:\/\/gentologie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Charles-Heidsieck-Champagne-170x170.jpg 170w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their chalk-pit dating back to 1867 are now part of the UNESCO World Heritage List.
