French-style Sauvignon Blanc
New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is said to be best known for its intense fruitiness.
The tartness of grapefruit, the elegance of passion fruit, and the refreshing feeling of dried herbs.
The moment it is poured into a glass, these powerful aromas rise up in a harmonious blend, captivating us.
There are many wines like that.
But that's not all.
Sauvignon Blanc with the characteristics I have just described is sometimes called a "fruit bomb."
This is not a compliment, but rather is often used as a derogatory expression for something being too fruity.
Some people believe that wine should have less fruit and more non-fruit elements.
Even in New Zealand, a country famous for its fruity wines, some producers think this way and deliberately do not emphasize the fruit flavor too much.
I think the most prominent example of this is Clos Henri, which I will introduce today.
Clos Henri is a branch of the prestigious Henri Bourgeois family of Sancerre in the Loire region of France.
They realized that New Zealand was the only place outside of France where they could pursue their own unique flavor, and planted the same Sauvignon Blanc vines as the original.
We have been making French-style wines in Marlborough for over 20 years.
Until now, the two main series have been Petit Clos (second line) and Clos Henri (flagship).
However, starting this year, the series structure has changed drastically.
The relatively affordable entry-level model is the "Estate," while the higher-end cuvées are named after the Ice Age, such as "Waimaunga" and "Otira."
The label has also been redesigned, giving it a very bright and modern look.
When you first put this Clos Henri Estate Sauvignon Blanc in your mouth, you will feel a beautiful lemon-like acidity. There are also hints of kumquat and quince. However, the fruit flavor is gentle, and the impression is dry.
Its greatest feature is the bittersweetness and minerality that lingers in the mouth. Along with the pleasant bitterness reminiscent of the white pulp of citrus fruits, you can clearly feel the crunching aftertaste that leaves the upper palate feeling dry.
This is a characteristic not found in typical Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.
I think that those who are used to drinking hard mineral water (such as French brands like Contrex or Vittel) will find this to be an irresistible "hard" taste.
This type of wine with a strong mineral flavor tastes even better when paired with food.
It pairs well with shellfish such as oysters and clams, and also with grilled salted white fish and grilled chicken. I think a sprinkling of herbs at the end will make it even better.
This is a bottle I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a dry white wine that is not too fruity and goes well with food.
I think you'll be surprised to find out that New Zealand wines exist!
About the Winery "Clos Henri"
Clos Henri is a winery owned by the Henri Bourgeois family, famous wine producers in Sancerre, Loire Valley, France.
The Bourgeois family chose Marlborough, a wine-producing region in New Zealand, from among all the places around the world to create their ideal wine.
The wines they aim to produce in Marlborough are French-style, different from those of other New Zealand producers, producing richly textured and elegant wines that impress Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir fans around the world.
About Marlborough
Marlborough is the heart of New Zealand's wine region.
Marlborough has ideal natural conditions for grape growing, such as abundant sunshine and large temperature differences throughout the day, and produces over 80% of New Zealand's wine.
Among them, Sauvignon Blanc, characterized by its crisp acidity and overflowing fruitiness, boasts an overwhelming production volume and is loved worldwide for its unique character. In red wine, Pinot Noir, with its rich berry fruit flavor, is also popular.
