Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir, 2022

Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir 2022 is a polished, modern take on New Zealand Pinot Noir, showing the precision and purity that made Cloudy Bay one of Marlborough’s most influential wineries. With its bright fruit, graceful texture and immediate charm, it offers a benchmark expression of the region’s cool-climate style.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a clear ruby-red hue. The nose is expressive and inviting, with aromas of strawberry, cherry and boysenberry, lifted by subtle hints of vanilla and toast from oak influence. The palate is soft, elegant and juicy, delivering ripe red fruit, fresh acidity and a silky structure that keeps the wine balanced and refined. While approachable now, it has enough complexity and structure to develop further over the next few years.

Production
Sourced from Marlborough, where cool maritime conditions and clay-rich soils help Pinot Noir retain freshness while building aromatic depth and texture. The grapes are harvested with care to preserve purity of fruit, and the winemaking focuses on maintaining precision, finesse and varietal expression with a discreet touch of oak for added complexity.

Food & Serving
Serve slightly chilled with roast chicken, duck, grilled dishes or mushroom-based plates. It also works beautifully on its own as an elegant glass to enjoy before or during a relaxed meal. Decanting is not essential, but a short aeration can help open the wine if served young.

Producer
Cloudy Bay was founded in 1985 and quickly became one of the names that put New Zealand wine on the global map. Based in Marlborough, the estate is widely respected for setting the standard for premium Sauvignon Blanc and elegant, terroir-driven wines such as Pinot Noir, with a long-standing reputation for clarity, consistency and quality.
