点评:I wanted to do some winetasting when visiting the Marlborough area. I think some vineyards do free wine tasting with the trouble with that is that you end up at the end feeling obliged to buy wine or somewhat embarrassed if you don’t. So I found some vineyards which you paid 15 or $20 to taste a flight of wines . That turned out to be a much better solution.
Cloudy Bay was a really great experience. It was recommended as the one to do in one of our guides if you’re only doing one and it is definitely the one to include. Although it’s quite a big commercial operation, the winetasting is very professional and quite intimate. We turned up without a booking , but if you’re going during the busy period I would definitely book. We were shown to a table and offered the menu which was three different flights of wine all about $20 each. My wife has a flight of five wines including the famous Sauvignon Blanc. I opted for the Riesling selection of 4 wines and then we tried each other’s wines. There was water and crackers on the table. Our host was lady from the champagne region of France who was very expert. All in all a really good experience which I would definitely recommend.

Cloudy Bay 是一次非常棒的体验。我们的一位导游建议,如果你只去一次,就应该去那里,这绝对是你应该去的地方。虽然这是一个相当大的商业活动,但品酒活动非常专业,而且非常私密。我们没有预订就来了,但如果你是在繁忙时段去的,我肯定会预订。我们被带到一张桌子旁,菜单上有三种不同的葡萄酒,每种大约 20 美元。我的妻子点了五种葡萄酒,包括著名的长相思。我选择了 4 款雷司令葡萄酒,然后我们互相品尝了对方的葡萄酒。桌上有水和饼干。我们的主人是一位来自法国香槟地区的女士,她非常专业。总而言之,这是一次非常好的体验,我绝对会推荐。
