Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2017
Cloudy Bay Vineyards was established by David Hohnen in 1985 in the Wairau Valley of Marlborough at the northern end of New Zealand's South Island and is the best known name in New Zealand wine. For nearly four decades their outstanding Sauvignon Blanc has been acclaimed by many as the region's leading light and possibly the most prestigious Sauvignon Blanc in the world.
A wine full of fresh herbal aromas and layers of ripe guava and tropical fruit. Gooseberries and passion fruit on the medium-full body; the palate is succulent and crisp with a long flavoursome finish.
