WA95 Single-Vineyard Kiwi Sauv Blanc

"The 2023 Otira Glacial Stones Sauvignon Blanc is texturally sophisticated, pure and energetic ...This is a restrained, long and persistent wine, and once again, I do love it." - Erin Larkin, Wine Advocate

Like many of the top properties in Chlie and Argentina that have been established by Bordeaux royalty, New Zealand's Clos Henri has its roots with a legendary French winemaking family. With ten generations of experience making some of Sancerre's finest wines, Domaine Henri Bourgeois knows a thing or two about Sauvignon Blanc, and it makes perfect sense that they'd set up shop in New World's most dynamic Sauv Blanc region. The 2023 Clos Henri Otira Glacial Stones is once again a critical smash hit with 95 points from Wine Advocate, a superb example of Wairau Valley Sauvignon Blanc that sets the bar for the category. Far from just another fruit-forward, one-dimensional expression, the 2023 Otira Glacial Stones offers loads of terroir character and layered nuances in a thrilling tip of the hat to its Sancerre pedigree.
