Tasting Notes

Richard Juhlin 95

The name L’Inattendue means unexpected and is intended as a wine where winemakers are most surprised by style in the highest quality class. Henriot’s new baby from the light but elegant vintage 2016 is an ultra-clean and intense Avize Blanc de Blancs from four locations in completely different parts of the municipality (Les Regards, Les Avats, Les Chanteraines and Les Roches) made on a steel tank and with a low dosage of 4 grams of sugar. Spontaneously, I loved the wine at my first meeting as, despite its youthful restrained style right from the start, it is very reminiscent of the masterpiece Cuvee 38. Perhaps not so surprising considering that these vineyards are an important part of the famous magnum made as a solera. Salt-sprinkled and flinty mineral elegance, lime, magnolia, lemon zest dominate, but there is also an enveloping buttery richness and silky texture that gives a feeling of maturity in the middle of its youthful beauty. Lovely irritating as a spring breeze now, but even more delicious in ten years in a good cellar. A large and ultra-elegant wine reminiscent of the most subtle wines from Puligny-Montrachet.
