There is absolutely no reason why Cloudy Bay shouldn't be at the absolute top of the Marlborough quality hierarchy. With the enormous resources of LVMH behind it and a legacy of past success, perhaps expectations are too high? There's no doubt the winery went through a phase when quality wasn't all it could've been, yet today, the wines looks just as good—and sometimes better—than ever. The 2018 Sauvignon Blanc is a reassuring return to form, despite a challenging vintage. "We had really ripe fruit, it just got tricky at the end," said Technical Director Jim White during my January visit. New developments include the release of a non-vintage Pelorus Rosé sparkling wine (I prefer the slightly drier, crisper regular bottling) and the coming of age of the company's Central Otago project. With the release of the 2016 vintage, the Te Wahi Pinot Noir shows something close to its true potential.

Cloudy Bay er en anerkendt vinproducent fra Marlborough-regionen på New Zealand, grundlagt i 1985 af David Hohnen, som også var en af de oprindelige grundlæggere af det berømte vinhus Cape Mentelle i Australien. Cloudy Bay var en af de første vingårde i Marlborough, der satte regionen på verdenskortet for sine kvalitetsvine, særligt Sauvignon Blanc, der hurtigt blev anerkendt for sin friskhed, intensitet og aromatiske kompleksitet.

Vinene fra Cloudy Bay stammer fra de exceptionelle vinmarker omkring Marlborough, hvor det kølige klima og det unikke terroir giver optimale betingelser for dyrkning af Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay og Pinot Noir. Vingårdens filosofi er at skabe vine, der afspejler den naturlige skønhed og terroir i Marlborough, samtidig med at de opretholder en høj standard for kvalitet og innovation.

I dag er Cloudy Bay en del af det australske vinimperium Treasury Wine Estates, men vingården fortsætter med at producere vine, der sætter standarden for New Zealands vinproduktion, og den er fortsat synonym med kvalitetsvine og innovation. Cloudy Bay’s vinproduktion omfatter en række prestigefyldte vine, herunder deres ikoniske Sauvignon Blanc, samt Chardonnay, Pinot Noir og specialudgaver som Te Koko og Cloudy Bay Pelorus.

Vingården er også kendt for sin miljøbevidste tilgang til vinavl, hvor bæredygtige metoder og ressourcebesparelse spiller en vigtig rolle i deres produktion.
