Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2010
|

|
The 2010 vintage from NZ, and more specifically the Marlborough region has whipped the wine world into a frenzy!
The nose excites the senses with a melange of sweet passionfruit and tomato with a subtle hint of strawberry.
The palate is great, reminding you of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc as it should be - Passionfuit, capsicum spice and juicy green apple.
WINERY TASTING NOTE: 2010 has produced a Sauvignon Blanc of vibrant intensity. The characteristically uplifting aromas of ripe lime and grapefruit, nectarine, papaya and mango and floral notes of orange blossom, gooseberry and sweet fennel are striking. A small portion of barrel ferment and subtle use of solids in fermentation has resulted in a chalky and weighty texture balanced by a minerally-citrus acid backbone. The wine has elegant line and length; refined, fleshy yet focussed and refreshing.
The Marlborough region is blessed with a unique terroir where a cool, maritime South Pacific climate produces wines of great fruit intensity.
Widely regarded as the quintessential expression of the acclaimed Marlborough wine region, Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc is an international benchmark wine noted for its vibrant aromatics, layers of pure fruit flavours, and fine structure.
Meticulous viticulture combined with modern technology and traditional vinification methods, consistently produces a style that has become the reference for this remote southern wine region.
