Clos Henri Petit Clos Pinot Noir 2019, Marlborough

petitclospinotnoir.png

Ripe, varietal and quite intense with a core of dark cherry and mineral, roses and wild savoury herbs-de-provence then baking spices of oak with vanilla, clove and a touch of smoke. On the palate - dry with a contrasting core of red berry fruits, savoury and tense with firm youthful tannins and acidity then barrel spices, smoke and mineral. A lovely wine, tense and young, needs cellar time . Best drinking from 2023 through 2030+.
