Is Cloudy Bay the new Champagne? “An utterly gob-smackingly gorgeous bubbly … Track down the 1995 vintage of Pelorus, from the Cloudy Bay bunch in New Zealand. A massive advance … this is one of the most richly elegant sparkling wines on the planet. The pastry-edged fruit is outstanding, and has to be compared with absurdities such as Krug which cost five or six times as much.”
