2008 Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand

A highlight of the annual wine calendar is 'Bay Day' and this year is no exception as we are delighted to offer our limited allocation of the stunning 2008 Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc vintage on a strictly first come, first served basis. Packing an invigorating punch alongside an exciting, vibrant nose of lime, gooseberry and fresh cut grass, this wine is beautifully exotic with classic, cool and dry minerality on the finish.

Scented and summery, the 2008 Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc has deliciously vibrant aromatics that infuse the tropical fragrance of fresh passion fruit and juicy pineapples with garden-fresh basil and the spiciness of crushed tomato leaves. The palate is long and succulent, combining exotic fruits with ripe, red capsicum and a twist of green olive... beautifully complemented by crisp natural acidity and a hint of lime zest.
(Kevin Judd, Chief Winemaker Cloudy Bay)

Pineapple and tomato leaf aromas, juicy acidity, limey, green olive notes – keep for three years to see how it develops.
