A Bourgeois Family Estate at the Other End of the World
With Clos Henri, the Bourgeois family extends its story beyond Sancerre to the heart of Marlborough, New Zealand.
The project was born from a simple ambition: to explore the expression of Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir on New World terroirs, through the same winemaker's lens.
A Different Expression of Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir
In Marlborough, Clos Henri offers a terroir-centered reading of Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir.
The vineyard is planted at high density with controlled yields, encouraging deep root systems and genuine soil expression.
The resulting wines move beyond purely varietal profiles to deliver finer, more balanced expressions that are deeply rooted in their origin.

Organic and Biodynamic Viticulture
At Clos Henri, the vineyard is farmed organically and biodynamically, with particular attention to soil vitality and vine balance.
This work is a direct continuation of the Bourgeois family's philosophy: to observe, understand, and accompany nature in order to reveal the terroir's expression with precision.
In a still-pristine environment, these practices bring out the full purity and energy of Marlborough wines.
Continuity of Expertise
The terroirs change — the standards don't.
The work at Clos Henri reflects the continuity of the Bourgeois family's expertise:
- attentiveness to soils
- respectful viticulture
- precision in winemaking
- a constant pursuit of balance and elegance
Clos Henri is not an extension — it is another expression of the same vision of wine
