Cloudy Bay Chardonnay

TASTING NOTES

 
Intense aromas of peaches, nectarines, aromatic herbs and biscuit. A light entry ofstone fruit becomes a slippery midpalate that re-focuses to an aromatic and mineral finish.

 

 

BACKGROUND

 

 Established in 1985, Cloudy Bay Vineyards is situated in the Wairau Valley in Marlborough at the northern end of New Zealand’s South Island. This unique and cool wine region enjoys a maritime climate with the longest hours of sunshine of any place in New Zealand. Cloudy Bay has estate vineyards located at prime sites within the Wairau Valley, and long-term supply agreements with five Wairau Valley growers.

The main varieties grown are sauvignon blanc, chardonnay, and pinot noir with lesser quantities of gewurztraminer, Riesling, and pinot gris.
