Designed by Gavin McWilliam and Andrew Wilson

Gavin McWilliam and Andrew Wilson have designed the Cloudy Bay Sensory Garden to reflect the tasting notes of the Cloudy Bay wines. Using this as the basic concept, planting and flower colours, perfumes and textures are used to visualise the sensations experienced when drinking the wine.

Layered characteristics of tastes typify these wines and the various descriptors relate well to our experiences of the garden and its plants.

Oak and charred oak are combined with limestone surfaces and sparkling water to complete the design as a garden of sensory delight. Tall oak panels create a sense of elegance and oak and hazel coppice with woodland fruit contrast the drama of the colour swathe that splashes across the garden.
