Commercial description 

Cloudy Bay has built a reputation for refined, elegant Sauvignon blanc.

HOW IT WAS MADE 

The Sauvignon Blanc grapes were picked with ripe flavours and great acid balance. Vinification Following harvest, the free-run juice was cold settled for 48-72 hours before racking. Fermentation was primarily carried out in stainless steel tanks with a mixture of cultured yeasts and wild yeast.

Approximately 3% of the blend was fermented at warmer temperatures in old French oak barriques and large format vats. As usual our sauvignon blanc was stringently blended, including only the strongest batches.
