Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir Red

Explore the subtlety of Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir Red, a wine that embodies the elegance and complexity of Marlborough’s soils and the vision of Cloudy Bay. The grapes are carefully de-stemmed and placed in open fermenters, where they ferment with wild yeasts. Some whole bunches are left in to structure the wine, which, after pressing, matures in French oak barrels for 11 months.

On the nose, the wine is open and expressive, showing notes of wild fruits, crushed rose petals, and warm red cherries. The palate is a symphony of elegance, with silky tannins and a crisp acidity that frames a core of summer berries, soft spices, and a hint of biscuit vanilla. The finish is prolonged, evoking warm summer nights, strawberries under leafy shadows, and a lingering smokiness of churrasco.

Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir is remarkably versatile, harmonizing with a vast range of foods, from light game meats like duck and rabbit, to lamb, roasted vegetables, berries, herbs, and practically everything that’s grilled. This wine is the perfect choice for those seeking sophistication and versatility at the table.
