Product information
Crisp and intensely fruity, this Sauvignon Blanc is a New Zealand star. This single wine did more to secure New Zealand's reputation as an international heavyweight than any other. Elegant, crisp, perfect and still a head-turner.
More about this product;
In wine circles they still speak of the Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc in hushed tones. When it hit the market a decade ago it flew off the shelves so quickly it was simply impossible to get hold of. In the intervening years the Cloudy Bay folks have bumped up the tonnage of grapes but the quality of this Sauvignon Blanc continues to set new benchmarks.
This delicious white comes from the wine region of Marlborough in the north-eastern corner of New Zealand's South Island. There's up-front gooseberry, touches of green pepper and and some elderflower character in there together with a touch of fatness from the oak and a slight dash of Semillon zing. It's very contemporary, very classy and very very cool.
Drink it nice and chilled with a summery salad or a nice fish dish. It's such a special white, it's also really delicious drunk on its own.

Brand
Cloudy Bay
Quality is our obsession, our hallmark, and our promise. We know making exceptional wines takes acute attention to detail in all aspects of wine production. In the vineyards, our yields are around 30% lower than the regional average. In the winery, we use technology, taste and experience to select only the best grapes for each wine. It might mean fewer bottles, but it always means better wine. Beyond the quality of our wines, we care most about protecting this place we call home. Cloudy Bay is a founding member of Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand. In Central Otago, our vineyards are farmed organically. Selected Estate blocks in Marlborough are trialing organic practices to roll out across the remaining vineyards.

Tasting Notes
Notes of bright, ripe citrus, kaffir lime, passionfruit and white peach. The palate is vibrant and mouthwatering, with contentrated, juicy tropical notes melding with zesty citrus, stone fruits and subtle notes of orchard blossom.
History
Cloudy Bay was established in 1985. After a single sip of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, founder David Hohnen realised New Zealand's potential as a wine region. Cloudy Bay became one of the first five wineries established in Marlborough and is now New Zealand's most recognised winery on the world stage. From the first vintage, Cloudy Bay wines have found international acclaim for their remarkable quality and consistency.
Regional Information
Our Sauvignon Blanc fruit comes largely from vineyards planted in Wairau Valley's Rapaura, Renwick and Brancott Valley sub-regions. The area's warm, dry maritime climate and free-draining gravelly soils are perfect for Sauvignon Blanc. Key blocks include the Estate, Motukawa, Widow's Block, Red Shed, and Mustang vineyards.
Current Vintage
2022
Vinification Details
Fruit from each vineyard ferments separately before blending, a critical step in maintaining Cloudy Bay's famous consistency. Rather than blending to make more wine, the winemakers carefully select the right grapes (from over 90 batches) for each year's wine. This means the quantity may change, but never the quality.

lovely wine
i suppose the question is Cloudy bay is a world class wine but is it worth the price tag ;the answer to the question is its come on leaps and bounds in recent years .Cloudy Bay went through a period where there wines were not that good ;typical of New Zealand sauvignon;the tradition gooseberry notes are there from the very first taste its just a stand out from the crowd wine
