Clos Henri Sauvignon Blanc 2022

The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc leads with an interesting, restrained nose of crushed rocks, shells, juniper, white oak, autumn leaves and green apple skins. In the mouth, the wine is very good. While powerful, it doesn’t descend to sweet or bulbous; this shows structural detail and fruit power in equal measure. Not your “usual” Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, but it honors the regional style in a fresh and almost geological way. Like it.

A crunchy and sharp sauvignon blanc with green apples, lime zest and lemongrass on the nose. Sea shells and crushed stones, too. Clean and crisp with a mineral, dry finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.

A flinty, mineral character mingles with fleshy melon, lime leaf and dried wild herbs on this organic Sauvignon Blanc. There’s a lovely tangy freshness amid the chalky textural elements. While still quite young, this is, in general, a step up from your average Marlborough SB. It captures the world-famous style while adding an extra level of complexity and class.

This 2022 Estate is far from Clos Henri's best Sauvignon Blanc. It's rather soft and lackluster with a honeyed/marmalade character that is often a character of botrytis, alongside lemon curd and wet wool. Drink young.
