Henri's Reserve Information

Henri's Reserve is a one-of-a-kind e-boutique created for Champagne lovers, foodies, and those with a desire to explore the seductive world of boutique, family estate Champagnes. Henri’s Reserve guides them to the most exquisite family estate Champagnes in the world. A leading marketer of wine & spirits brands stateside, Henri’s Reserve founder, Ruth Frantz, led by her inimitable guide Henri, discovered the exceptional and exclusive world of artisanal, grower Champagnes. Just as fine wines differ from region to region and vineyard-to-vineyard, Ruth found that while the large production Champagnes had consistent “house styles” year to year they didn’t have the thrilling, deeply original characteristics of boutique Champagnes. Ruth was transported by the stories of the families, the power of terroir, the 17 Grand Cru villages, the artistry of the winemakers, and the incredible and sometimes impossible-to-procure Champagnes they made. Henri's Reserve Champagnes are a break from the ordinary. While large négociants such as Moet and Veuve Clicquot produce millions of cases a year using grapes from hundreds of vineyards throughout Champagne, Henri’s Reserve focuses exclusively on estate-bottled Champagnes that rarely make more than 10,000 cases/year. Now, after months of searching and sipping Frantz has uncorked her latest venture—bringing the miraculous world of boutique Champagnes to Champagne lovers everywhere.
