Vintage: 2020

Region: Marlborough

Winemaker Notes

The 2020 Pinot Noir is fragrant, appealing and aromatic. Rose petals, dark cherries and blackberries fill the nose. On the palate, a core of rounded bramble fruit, ripe boysenberry and wild strawberry is unpinned by silky tannins and fine acidity. A concentrated yet elegant wine.

Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir is the perfect wine to take when you don’t know what’s for dinner. Versatile and food-friendly, it has a signature silky elegance. A benchmark Marlborough wine, Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir is proof that Marlborough’s climate and clay soils make it much more than a one-grape region.

92 Pts, James Suckling

"Aromas of baked strawberries, red cherries, rosemary and porcini mushroom. Medium- to full-bodied with soft tannins. Juicy and fresh on the palate with a mineral undertone. Wet stone and overturned earth come through."

93 Pts, Wine Spectator

"Impressive, showing generous plush, juicy flavors of raspberry, blueberry and ripe plum at the pure core, with details of dried lavender, white pepper, black tea and star anise. Reveals hints of bittersweet chocolate on the long, expressive finish."
