Cloudy Bay Pelorus 750mL

Description

Established in 1985, Cloudy Bay was one of the first five wine makers to venture into Marlborough. Pelorus embodiesthe crispy sophistication of a sparkling wine: subtly combining fresh and fruity chardonnay notes with rich and savoury hints of pinot noir. Today, Cloudy Bay not only captures the essence of Marlborough but also embodies New Zealand's luxury to the world. Cloudy Bay's Natural Luxury is a luxury of space and time, of intimate moments and nature’s rarest qualities. The pale straw colour and aromas of ripe citrus fruits indicate its chardonnay origins. A layered bouquet of apple and lemon citrus complements fresh bready notes derived from two years bottle ageing on lees. The deliciously crisp palate displays toasty, creamy complexity,enhanced by a lingering nutty finish. Pelorus was designed as an aperitif but the palate offers significant depth making it a delightful partner to many dishes. The favourite pairing is with freshly shucked oysters & a squeeze of lemon. Also consider smoked salmon, seared scallops, wild greens with citrus vinaigrette and honey & citrus glazed chicken skewers.
