酒莊的名字 Cloudy Bay 來自 Wairau Valley 東面盡頭的海灣，在 1770 年由庫克船長在他到新西蘭時命名的。

產區：
新西蘭 Marlborough

Vinification:
Following harvest, the free-run juice was cold settled for 48-72 hours before racking. Fermentation was primarily carried out in stainless steel tanks with a mixture of cultured yeasts and wild yeast. Approximately 3% of the blend was fermented at warmer temperatures in old French oak barriques and large format vats. As usual our sauvignon blanc was stringently blended, including only the strongest batches.

Tasting Notes:
NOSE:
Bright, lifted citrus aromatics of kaffir lime and grapefruit abound, supported by ripe nectarine-like stone fruit notes.
PALATE:
An elegant, concentrated palate reveals ripe, juicy stone fruit and lemongrass, supported by a lovely minerality.
