Hemera 2008

Chiselled grandeur


Henriot Hemera 2008 is a blend of the six founding crus, with each represented in equal part, through a singular year, making it a Millésime. Each vintage of this Champagne is a continuation of the Maison Henriot historical terroirs, where the character of the year is revealed. The terroirs offer a base, a structure, a charisma, a hierarchy. The year offers intensity, a division of roles, an expression, and a translation.

“Henriot Hemera 2008 presents a construction loyal to its historical terroirs, made of amplified contrasts and intense demonstration through the year 2008. Henriot Hemera 2008 shows an intimidating greatness. Freshness, delicacy, distinction and power, all in restraint, characterize this creation. At the opening, some woody and suble toasted notes accompany the movement in the background. On the palate, the harmony emerges, giving way to a vivacity pronounced with elegance, and a glimpse of a precise and wonderful construction that looks like lace.”
