When Captain Cook, on his 1770 voyage to New Zealand dubbed the inlet at the eastern end of the Wairau Valley, “Cloudy Bay,” he definitely got it wrong. Cloudy Bay Vineyards was established in 1985 at the northern end of the South Island of New Zealand, in the Wairau Valley of the Marlborough appellation which enjoys the longest hours of sunshine in the country!
Cloudy Bay Vineyards’ philosophy is simple; they believe in the production of the highest quality wines from the best varietals grown in the most appropriate vineyard locations. This dedication to detail results in a distinctive style that shines through in every bottle of sauvignon blanc, chardonnay and pinot noir that Cloudy Bay produces.
