2024 Catalina Sounds “Sound of White” Classic Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough is a vibrant expression of cool-climate Sauvignon Blanc, crafted by Catalina Sounds. Fruit is sourced from vineyards across the Waihopai Valley and surrounding Marlborough sites, delivering the region’s signature intensity and freshness.
The wine opens with lifted aromas of preserved citrus, elderflower and tropical fruit, with subtle herbal notes and a touch of jalapeño-like spice. The palate is lively and energetic, offering flavours of lime, passionfruit and grapefruit, supported by crisp acidity and a clean mineral finish.
