Cloudy Bay Te Koko Sauvignon Blanc 2020

Established in 1985, Cloudy Bay boldly ventured into Marlborough, becoming one of the first five winemakers to recognize its untapped potential. At the time, Marlborough was an unconventional choice for a vineyard, but Cloudy Bay's founder, David Hohnen saw beyond the norm and invested in the region's finest land. This visionary move laid the foundation for Marlborough's rise as New Zealand's leading wine region and a globally renowned winemaking destination. Cloudy Bay defied conventional winemaking norms and set a new standard for New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.
