Clos Henri Waimaunga Windblown Clays Pinot Noir 2020
Vineyard notes
- Lying at the convergence between 3 distinct geological ages, Clos Henri has one of the most distinctive soil morphologies in the Marlborough Valley. Paying homage to these unique terroirs and revealing the true nature of these wines is the ultimate objective of the Bourgeois Family. Our Single Vineyard cuvées tell the story of the simplicity and elegance offered by the confluence of glacial and windswept terroirs.
Named for the Waimaungan Glaciation period that was instrumental in forging this unique terroir, this Pinot Noir is characterised by bold spice and dark fruits, a careful balance of terroir and winemaking, resulting in a powerful and supple wine that shows off the layers of weathered, windblown clays that nursed its grapes.
