First produced in 1987 Cloudy Bay’s Pelorus is made from a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir aged en tirage for a minimum of 24 months.

A frothy white mousse holds well over a pale straw, pale gold tinged base that has an exceptionally  fine and very persistent bead flowing through it. Aromas of pear, brioche and yeast lees show plenty of intensity with hints of honeyed cashews and nougat also evident. Rich, full and expansive the palate is layered with brioche, yeast lees and honeyed cashew like flavours with some pear and nougat characteristics lying underneath. Creamy textured it finishes long and mouth watering.
Alc. 12.5%
