Winemaker Notes

Gentle pressing straight to the tank allows for the retention of the aromatic freshness of the wine. Fermentation occurred in 85% stainless steel and 10% old French oak barrels. The wine was then aged on fine yeast lees for 8 months with lees stirring, to obtain a round Sauvignon Blanc with body and mouthfeel. A further 6 months of tank and barrel aging is employed to ensure balance before bottling.

About the Producer

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. From the three different soil types of the estate, 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. Textural and elegant, these wines are quite a bit different from the New Zealand “norm.”
