CLOUDY BAY
Sauvignon Blanc 2019

There are New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs, there are Marlborough Sauvignon Blancs, and there is the Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc that first brought world fame to New Zealand with its unique character and sophistication. Despite the difficult vintage, the wine still meets our expectations in 2019. In an interesting change to earlier practices, a really small part of it was fermented in French oak at a warmer temperature and not in tanks. Owing to its freshness, it’s still restrained yet with really varietal aromas and flavours of flowers, citrus fruit, plus grapefruit and peach in the background. Lively acidity, refreshing aftertaste.
