Henners have sucessfully dipped their toes in to red wine making, resulting in this vibrant and beautifully balanced Pinot Noir.

Bright and li fted on the palate, with layers of red fruit and a gentle thread of spice. Light-bodied with soft tannins and a smooth, flowing finish. Refreshing and well-balanced, offering purity of fruit and a touch of savoury complexity.

Perfect for relaxed drinking, whether paired with light foods or shared with friends. Serve slightly chilled to bring out its fresh character.

Sourced from vineyards in Worcestershire and Essex, this 100 % Pinot Noir was made using clones selected for their small berries to ensure maximum flavour concentration. The grapes underwent a 5 -day cold soak, followed by fermentation on skins for 10 days before being pressed and transferred to tank and barrel for ageing. 75 % was aged in stainless steel to retain freshness and li ft, while 25 % matured in French oak barrels to bring delicate structure and subtle spice.

Henners

When it comes to English wine there’s a lot to shout about, not least the stunning sparkling wines from Henners. Based just 4 miles from the sea in Herstmonceux, East Sussex, the 7 acre vineyard was created in 2007 by ex-Formula One engineer, Lawrence Warr. The winery was named in honour of Larry's French ancestor, Henners Dubois, who was forced to flee Paris for England during the French Revolution in the in the late 18th Century.

Planted with traditional Champagne varieties of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, the vines thrive in an idyllic microclimate created by the vineyard’s proximity to the sea, low altitude (only 24 metres above sea level) and steep, sunny, south facing slopes.

All Henners wines are hand-crafted from start to finish; with separate fermenting of varietals and their vine clones to allow a broader range of wines for final blending; extended lees ageing for added complexity; and holding back of all bottles for at least 3 years prior to release to add depth and richness to every wine. Hand-crafted with every attention to detail, our winemakers create award winning wines of depth, complexity and elegance that are perfect for any occasion.
