Tasting Note:
- View: Straw with pale green iridescence.
- Nose: Fresh and vibrant, with aromatic notes of bright citrus, kaffir lime, sprouts and passion fruit.
- The palate is long and succulent, combining ripe tropical fruits with notes of olives and red peppers. It ends with a crisp acidity and a touch of lime peel that lingers long in the memory.
Elaboration and aging:By the way, Cloudy Bay owes its name to the particularly cloudy bay at the eastern end of the Wairau Valley, named after Captain Cook.
