Beautifully aromatic and enticing on the nose, with a distinctly summery character. Scents of strawberry and cherry run alongside a touch of vanilla and toast
Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir is the perfect wine to take when you don’t know what’s for dinner.

Quality is our obsession, our hallmark, and our promise. We know making exceptional wines takes acute attention to detail in all aspects of wine production. In the vineyards, our yields are around 30% lower than the regional average. In the winery, we use technology, taste and experience to select only the best grapes for each wine. It might mean fewer bottles, but it always means better wine. Beyond the quality of our wines, we care most about protecting this place we call home. Cloudy Bay is a founding member of Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand. In Central Otago, our vineyards are farmed organically. Selected Estate blocks in Marlborough are trialing organic practices to roll out across the remaining vineyards.

History: This New Zealand Pinot Noir comes from the best Cloudy Bay vineyards in the Marlborough region, known for its long and steady growing season that favours the full ripeness of the grapes.
Regional information: Our Pinot Noir comes from the cool clay soils and rolling, north-facing slopes of Marlborough's Southern Valleys region. The aged alluvial gravels and dense clay subsoils balance drainage and water availability to yield the region's best Pinot Noir grapes. The key vineyards for this variety are Mustang, Delta, and Barracks.
Vinification: The Pinot Noir fruit was sorted using our optical sorter, before being gravity-fed into the open-topped fermentation tanks. The skins were gently plunged, with an average of 21 days' skin contact, and then 100% of the wine underwent malolactic fermentation
