Critics Ratings
'An addition to the range, the NV Cuvée 38 is a real knock-out. The Cuvée 38 is a perpetual reserve of the house's best Chardonnay from the Grand Cru villages of Mesnil-sur-Oger, Chouilly, Avize and Oger. Lifted and precise, with the cut of a jewel, the Cuvée 38 impresses with its energy and tension. Lemon oil and a host of citrus-inflected notes appear first, followed by white pepper, mint and floral notes. This is one of the most understated, subtle and finessed Champagnes I have ever tasted from Henriot. Given the reserve perpetuelle, I am actually surprised by how reticent and fresh the Cuvée 38 is.' - Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 95+/100 (Nov 2015)
'A toasty version, this is elegant overall, offering a rich, finely woven palate of baked apricot, marzipan, lemon curd and a smoky mineral. Fine and creamy in texture, with a lingering, bright and zesty finish.' - Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator, 93/100 (Nov 2015)
