In 1640, the Henriot family settled in the Champagne region with first and foremost clothing making, but soon added wine to their family activities. After acquiring land to plant vines, the family gains knowledge about viticulture and becomes experts in their terroirs. The treatise "How to cultivate the vine and make wine in Champagne", published in 1718, attributed to Canon Godinot, was a source of inspiration for Apolline Henriot, founder of the Maison Henriot. In 1808, Apolline Henriot, the young widow of Nicolas Henriot, founded Maison Henriot. Owner of a vineyard in the heart of the Montagne de Reims, Apolline has a deep love for the Champagne region, the beauty of its vines and its landscapes.
