Crafted Using the Authentic Method of Secondary Fermentation in Bottle
Cloudy Bay is renowned for its Sauvignon Blanc, celebrated for its pure fruit character. The newly released Cloudy Bay Pelorus is crafted with the expertise of...Champagne...grand maisons, utilizing the traditional Méthode Traditionnelle, where a secondary fermentation occurs within the bottle, a testament to their winemaking knowledge and skill.
The name 'Pelorus' is inspired by Pelorus Jack, a famous Marlborough dolphin who, from 1888 to 1912, guided ships through the treacherous Cook Strait waters, playfully riding the waves. The logo also features this dolphin motif.
The blend features hand-harvested Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. It offers an elegant aroma of citrus and toasted brioche, with a creamy, complex palate. Its profound taste pairs exquisitely with oysters dressed with lemon juice, smoked salmon, and salads with vinaigrette.
