Clos Henri Petit Clos Pinot Noir 2019/2020

The Petit Clos range from Clos Henri is produced from younger vines on the Clos Henri estate in Marlborough and offers wines made to the same exacting standard as the top flight wines in their portfolio, but at a lower price point.

This little stunner offers youthful and fresh aromas of wild strawberries and bright red fruits which evolves with subtle layers of spice and liquorice. At first dominated by plum and cherry, the textural palate develops spice and toasted oak notes. Svelte tannins and juicy acidity carry this wine on to a gentle, peppery finish.

Clos Henri began 22 years ago in Marlborough when the French Bourgeois family expanded their winemaking from the heart of Sancerre in the tiny village of Chavignol to Blenheim, in 2001. Now that their vines are 22 years of age , the family feels that they are only now starting to reflect and express the taste of the land. This family retains their land and winemaking in Chavignol where they have made wine for 11 generations.
