Tasting notes
Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir 2023 is a concentrated and elegant wine, with an intense nose rich in dark fruit and a silky finish. Vibrant, fruity, fresh, and earthy on the palate, it is masterfully structured, with excellent tension between the tannins and natural acidity.

The 2022 Pinot Noir is creamy and spicy, with poached strawberries, sumac, some oak that pokes through and plenty of chalky tannin. The wine feels a little "elbows and knees" currently, but the cuvée ages well, and this appears to have all it needs to go some distance in the cellar. It's light in frame but with a persistent flavour.
