Sauvignon Blanc
Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2007
Pale straw green in colour and enticingly fragrant, the 2007 Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc is reminiscent of a fresh summer fruit salsa – ripe peach, passionfruit, mango and juicy citrus – sprinkled with fresh fennel and a dash of Pastis. The palate is rich and succulent, with a zesty citrus and apple-sherbet acidity that leads to a long, lingering, and characteristically crisp finish.
Mouth-watering aromas of passionfruit and lemongrass lead with the spiciness of just-picked tomatoes tossed with fresh basil. Many small parcels of fruit, ripened under ideal conditions, bring layers of complexity to the 2007 Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc. The palate has exceptional richness, with ripe gooseberry flavours and a hint of fresh fennel leading to a powerful, crisp finish.
Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2005
Pale straw green in colour and vibrantly aromatic, the 2005 Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc is like an exotic infusion of fresh ginger, sweet basil, and lemongrass layered over ripe tropical and citrus fruits. With great purity of fruit flavours, the palate is mouth-wateringly juicy yet finishes with a refreshing crispness.
Pelorus
Cloudy Bay Pelorus NV
The pale straw colour and aromas of ripe citrus fruits indicate the chardonnay origins of Pelorus nv. A bouquet of apple and lemon complements fresh bready notes derived from two years bottle ageing on lees. The deliciously crisp palate displays toasty, creamy complexity, enhanced by a lingering nutty finish.
Cloudy Bay Pelorus Vintage 2002
The 2002 Pelorus Vintage has sumptuous aromas that invoke thoughts of a baker’s kitchen … warm brioche and almond flan with lashings of strawberries and cream. The palate is powerful yet elegant with buttery shortbread flavours, a delicate orange tang and the merest hint of white mushroom … leading seamlessly into a very fine finish.
Pinot Noir
Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir 2005
Opulent aromas of dark plums and cardamom spice are enhanced by the earthy scent of liquorice and hints of smoky oak. The palate is highly concentrated with black cherry and red berry flavours supported by silky tannins through to a long and generous finish. The 2005 Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir reflects an idyllic Marlborough vintage and will continue to gain additional complexity over 4 – 5 years if cellared in ideal conditions.
Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir 2003
Savoury dried herbs, charry oak and silky tannins resting on a powerful lithe frame. Seductive aromas of ripe cherries and black plums are supported by earthy notes of licorice and smoked hickory. The intensely varietal Palate reveals layers of dark red fruits, savoury dried herbs, charry oak and silky tannins resting on a powerful lithe frame.
Chardonnay
Cloudy Bay Chardonnay 2005
Savoury aromas of sesame biscuits and white mushrooms meld with the fragrance of ripe oranges and yellow plums, depicting the combination of wild yeast fermentation and vibrant Marlborough fruit. The palate is textural and generous with zesty citrus and nougat flavours, subtle toasty oak, and a long mineral finish
Cloudy Bay Chardonnay 2003
Delectable aromas of ripe stonefruit and orange blossom mingle with hints of white chocolate and freshly baked sponge cake. Flinty gunsmoke characters derived from natural yeast fermentation add to the complexity of this savoury style. The full bodied and textural palate shows zesty citrus flavours, complemented by honey toasted nuts and cream, finishing with a slaty, mineral edge. Delicious drinking at release, the 2003 Cloudy Bay Chardonnay will evolve gracefully over the next four to six |
