Cloudy Bay Tasting Notes
The scent of white flowers and fresh citrus fruits - lemons, limes and grapefruit - all temptingly mingled with the savoury complexity of toasted nuts and oatmeal. The silky palate shows lively citrus flavours and seamlessly integrated spicy French oak. Cloudy Bay Chardonnay 2006 depicts the combination of natural yeast fermentation and vibrant Marlborough fruit in a wine that will age gracefully over the next five to seven years.

Wine Spectator
Smooth and round, with a smoky edge to the lemon, orange and pear flavors, balanced with lively acidity. Drink now. 88 points

Wine Enthusiast
Full-bodied, rich and custardy, with ripe melon and pineapple fruit framed by toasted grain. This is a big, powerful, opulent Chardonnay, yet it also shows the finesse expected from Cloudy Bay. Drink it over the next year or two. —Joe Czerwinski, 90 points
