Sauvignon Blanc - 90 Points Wine Spectator
2018
Our Cloud No.9 Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc has aromas of fresh grapefruit and lime with cut grass characters on the nose.
This is reaffirmed on the palate, which exhibits an elegance and expression of purity that is synonymous with the Wairau Marlborough region. The finish is dry with refreshing zippy acidity and persistent length of flavour.
Simply put, this wine just has a great line.

Pinot Noir
2017
Cloud No. 9 Marlborough Pinot Noir comes from the heart of the Marlborough Golden Mile in Rapaura.
The berry is an uneven ripener that needs to be sorted carefully, and getting this right takes time, patience and perfectionism. It is hand picked, vinified using traditional methods and aged in oak barrels for a total of 18 months.
Our Pinot exhibits beautiful, primary fruit characters on the nose. Displaying hints of dark cherries, raspberry and wild violets. It has a delightful juicing mid palate, with fine grain tannins and clean acidity. Once it has opened up, new flavours will come to light that bring you back for a second taste.
The yields of this grape are small, as is the production.
