Red dry
This organic ‘Pinot Noir’, which is the flagship wine of „Clos Henri“ winery, perfectly combining the best nuances of Marlborough with Sancerre heritage.
This wine from the biodynamic estate „Clos Henri“ has a gently „natty“ vibe, ideal for drinking now. After a few swirls in the glass, notes of ripe strawberry, red currant, and floral notes emerge, intertwined with more earthy, vegetal nuances like asparagus fronds and truffle. The palate is supple and fruity, with „al dente“ freshness and ripe, even juicy, tannins.
This „Clos Henri“ red wine was fermented in open stainless steel vats, then aged for 11 months in large (7,500-liter) French oak vats.
Serve at 16-18 °C with mild meat dishes, grilled meaty and fatty fish, smoked fish and caramelised duck.
Nestled under the southern foothills of Marlborough’s Wairau Valley, Clos Henri is the wine estate meticulously established and organically run by the famous Sancerre wine growing family of Henri Bourgeois. Uniting 10 generations of winegrowing know-how from the Bourgeois family, Clos Henri crafts textural and elegant wines, capturing the intense Marlborough character with the aim to reveal the identity of the Clos Henri terroir and a true sense of place in the wines. From the three different soil types of the estate, partially comprised of a clay hill slope, the family uses the best of French and New World winegrowing techniques to capture the essence of Marlborough’s intense character and reveal the identity and depth of the Clos Henri terroir.
