Winery notes (2021 Vintage)
"The Pinor Noir 2021 is incredibly pretty and enticing on the nose, with notes of boysenberry, cherry and fragrant, dusky florals. On the palate, crunchy dark cherry, cranberry and hedgerow fruit notes burst in the mouth and bring an immediate sense of freshness. The tannins are super-fine, effortlessly underpinning the intense and succulent fruit character."

5 Stars & 95/100 Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review (2021 Vintage)
"Good depth of colour with plum, red cherry, spicy oak, floral/violet and subtle roast chestnut flavours adding up to a moderately complex and deliciously accessible pinot noir with potential for further bottle development. Elegant wine with an appealing texture."

5 Stars Michael Cooper (2021 Vintage)
"This consistently classy red is grown at sites on the cooler, more clay-influenced south side of the Wairau Valley, in Marlborough, and matured in French oak barrels (25 to 40 per cent new). Already delicious, the very ageworthy 2021 is a top vintage. Deeply coloured and finely scented, it is mouthfilling, rich and supple, with highly concentrated, ripe cherry, plum and spice flavours, finely integrated oak, and a smooth-flowing, finely textured finish. Best drinking 2026+."

93/100 James Suckling (2021 Vintage)
"Plenty of ripe strawberry with some black cherry character too. Violets and other flowers. Full-bodied with plenty of fruit and fine tannins that nicely frame the wine. Just a hint of smoke to the clear fruit and toasted oak. Very drinkable now, but two or three years of bottle age will bring it together even more."

Cloudy Bay is proudly numbered among Marlborough's trailblazing first five wine makers, who staked their claims at a time when it was virtually impossible to envision how the area would be transformed and thrive as a world-leading wine region. David Hohnen, Cloudy Bay's founder, had faith in the land's latent viticultural potential which gave him a headstart on developing some of its most suitable land.

Cloudy Bay takes its name from an expanse of water named by explorer James Cook. The sea was cloudy at the time, full of sediment from recent flooding run-off. The moniker captures the evocative quality of the transitory nature of New Zealand's land and seascapes - befitting for an accomplished wine producer.

At the heart of Cloudy Bay's wine-making philosophy is the desire to get the absolute best out of their world-class vineyards in Marlborough and Central Otago - carving out an unmistakable style made possible only through a deep understanding of grape and terroir combinations.

Central Otago is the world's most southern wine region and Cloudy Bay works hard to harness the best of its continental terroir, in a location where site selection is critical, to produce distinctively Central Otago notes of dark fruit and wild mountain herbs. Further north in Marlborough, Cloudy Bay sauvignons burst with bright expressive aromatics, with beautiful citrus and stone fruit characters shining forth.
