Marlborough DO Sauvignon Blanc 2024 (750 ml.) Cloudy Bay
The Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2024 is born in the green Wairau Valley of Marlborough, one of New Zealand’s finest terroirs. Manual harvest takes place in the evening, when cool air preserves the aromas and fragrance of the grapes. A small share, about 3%, ferments in French oak barriques, adding complexity and roundness. The result is an elegant, luminous white wine with an intoxicating aromatic profile of lime, citrus peel, peach, and orange blossom. On the palate it releases freshness, minerality, and refined fruity intensity, making it the ideal partner for shellfish, oysters, sushi, and vegetarian dishes. An authentic sip that clearly expresses the soul of Marlborough.
