May 18th, 2019Beautiful depth and concentration. Very exuberant and it shows how good Sauvignon Blanc can be when it's not dominated by trying to be one particular style. Very old world in character.

2 people found it helpfulJun 18th, 2017Great Sauv blanc for 18 bucks. Comes from the NZ arm of a Sancerre winemaking family and it shows. Not typical NZ sauv blanc with grassy grapefruit. More old world with cat piss aromatics and on the more minerally side of the tracks. Good persistence.

Sep 8th, 2013Too strong and with quite strong alcoholic sensation in the mouth. But very fruity and nice to drink in the hot weather.

Dec 7th, 2024Can’t find the exact wines I tasted but I enjoyed the Clos Henri’s from the clay soil better than the rocky soil; both Sauv Blanc and Pinot Nior.

Sep 23rd, 2022Tasted in wine class: really liked the herbaceous notes in with the tropical fruit. Nice finish and balance, decent complexity.
