Wines from Cloudy Bay Winery

• 2007 Sauvignon Blanc, Forrest Estate

  Leaving behind careers in medicine and molecular biology, Doctors John and Brigid Forrest established Forrest Estate in Marlborough's stony Wairau River Valley (not a million miles from Cloudy Bay) in 1989. This cheery pair won a coup at their first vintage, scooping a trophy for their Sauvignon at NZ's national wine awards. Crisp, scintillating and irresistibly aromatic, with tangy gooseberry and tropical fruit flavours, this excels with incendiary Thai dishes. "Beautiful passionfruit fragrance, but not in your face at all. A fantastic example of NZ Sauvignon with elegance." Wine & Spirit, May 2008

  The ground-breaking Cloudy Bay winery put NZ on the world wine map. It derives its name not from the brilliant design of the label which shows a range of cloud covered mountains but from the lovcal bay, so named by Captain Cook on his voyage of discovery , who leaned over the side of the ship and noted the waters dense with silt from the local river and went back to his chart and wrote 'Cloudy Bay' on the map !

• Cloudy Bay Chardonnay 6-bottle case.

  Released two years after the vintage date, Cloudy Bay Chardonnay is delicious in its youth with pure fruit flavours of grapefruit and white peach enhanced by a biscuity, mineral-like complexity, and restrained oak. The style gains richness and depth with careful cellaring, developing gracefully over six to ten years. 2007 tasting notes: An irresistible mix of ripe citrus and toasted nut aromas reminiscent of grapefruit, fig and pistachio biscotti taken with chamomile tea. The palate leads with savoury notes which give way to a taut citrus core, revealing the vibrant Marlborough fruit. 2006 tasting notes: The scent of white flowers and fresh citrus fruits -lemons, limes and grapefruit - all temptingly mingled with the savoury complexity of toasted nuts and oatmeal. The silky palate shows lively citrus flavours and seamlessly integrated spicy French oak. Cloudy Bay Chardonnay 2006 depicts the combination of natural yeast fermentation and vibrant Marlborough fruit in a wine that will age
