A Night of Refined Tastes with Cloudy Bay Vineyards at the FIVE Zurich

Hello Guys,

I hope you are well! It’s me Konstantinos, the same guy who said that 2023 would have tried to write more on the blog, but you know …

I couldn’t organize it like I wanted and because of a super busy months, It was very difficult to come back on writing. Luckily all these months were full of very very very interesting projects and of course all of you guys could see everything on my IG page, but of course a Post on my site can’t be replaced from an IG Post.

I don’t want to promise that I will try to write more on my site, but reeeeallly I will give a try this time .

Today, I will try to give you a bit more about my latest experience with Cloudy Bay wines at my forever favorite FIVE Hotel in Zurich.

That was the first time that we tried wines from that so renowned New Zealand winery, Cloudy Bay.

We tried the two distinct Sauvignon Blancs: their classic expression, known for its vibrant citrus and fruity notes, and the Te Koko, a more complex version aged in oak barrels who reveals subtle toasty and mineral characters. Both showcase the excellence of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, each catering to different palates seeking refreshment or sophisticated depth.

Our Friday night started with a delightful Winter Apéro around the fireplace at Cinque Studio Terrace, enjoying a very warm and inviting atmosphere.

Following the Winter Apero, it was time for the Cinque Studio x Cloudy Bay Dinner Experience inside at the restaurant . This was an exquisite culinary journey paired with exceptional wines.
