{"product_id":"cloudy-bay-chardonnay","title":"Cloudy Bay Chardonnay","description":"\u003cp\u003eChardonnay from Marlborough – at Cloudy Bay, this is not just a light berry mix, but a wine with real weight: ripe fruit, oak aging and a clear freshness that holds the wine together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Cloudy Bay is one of the wineries that put Marlborough on the world map. Since the 1980s, they have been cultivating grapes on the Wairau Plain – an area with long sunny days, cool nights, and well-drained gravelly soil. It is precisely this temperature difference between day and night that preserves the acidity in the Chardonnay, even when the grapes are fully ripe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The glass reveals aromas of white peach and apricot, underpinned by citrus zest and a hint of fresh hay. Oak aging introduces gentle toasty notes and a touch of vanilla without overpowering the fruit. The palate is full-bodied, with yellow stone fruit taking center stage and a lively acidity that keeps the finish crisp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eServing temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10–12 °C\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePairs well with:\u003c\/strong\u003e Roast veal rump, chicken with lemon thyme, scallops with butter sauce or a mature Brie.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDrinking window:\u003c\/strong\u003e Now until 2027\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cloudy Bay Vineyards Limited","offers":[{"title":"2022","offer_id":52695085154640,"sku":"V20088","price":31.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2023","offer_id":53093120901456,"sku":"V20088-2023","price":31.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/vinoscout_cloudy_bay_chardonnay.webp?v=1771238605","url":"https:\/\/www.vinoscout.de\/en\/products\/cloudy-bay-chardonnay","provider":"Vinoscout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
