| Background: Cloudy Bay's sparkling wine label Pelorus. Marlborough's sunny skies and long cool summer days allow for a slow ripening process. These conditions are essential for achieving the hallmarks of a quality sparkling wine - elegance, crispness and complexity. Pelorus Vintage Sparkling has been made in limited quantities since 1987, and is a pinot noir/chardonnay blend. A generous and full-bodied style in comparison to the lighter NV style, it's released at four years of age. |
| Colour: |
| Nose: Ripe red apples, quince jam and rosehips |
| Palate: A fine, elegant structure bursting with flavour. Lemon biscotti, a nougat-like nuttiness, creamy minerality blend seamlessly into a long, crisp finish. |
| Highlights: Approximately 60% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay. Aged on lees for 3 years prior to disgorgement in early 2008. |
