A New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc that is both fresh, vibrant and expressive
The estate
Founded in 1985 by David Hohnen, the estate Cloudy Bay is located in Marlborough, one of New Zealand’s finest wine regions, between the Pacific Ocean and the Richmond Range mountains. Situated at the entrance to the eponymous bay, this pioneering estate was one of the first to exploit Marlborough’s terroir. Today, it cultivates over 310 hectares of vines. Committed to sustainability, Cloudy Bay applies environmentally friendly practices at every stage, from the vineyard to the cellar. Over three decades, it has established itself as one of the flagship names of New World great wines.
The vineyard
This Sauvignon Blanc comes from vines planted in the renowned Wairau Valley, in the heart of Marlborough. The gravelly and stony soils combined with a dry, sunny climate create ideal conditions for producing pure white wines from New Zealand with remarkable aromatic expression.
Winemaking and ageing
Fermentation takes place mainly in stainless steel tanks, with a small portion (5%) in oak barrels. To preserve the identity of the terroir, part of the fermentation of this Marlborough wine was carried out using indigenous yeasts.
