Catalina Sounds Sauvignon Blanc 2025
Price: 20,00€
DESCRIPTION
Established in 2005, Catalina Sounds set out to produce some of Marlborough’s finest white wines, in the very heart of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc country. Their flagship vineyard lies in the Waihopai Valley, in the north of the South Island, where the cool climate and long hours of sunshine deliver perfect aromatic ripeness while preserving natural, vibrant acidity.
Paying tribute to the Catalina, the legendary South Pacific seaplane, this wine charms with notes of lemongrass, citrus, passion fruit, and a subtle herbal touch. The palate is lively and saline, with a crystalline finish that lingers beautifully.
Praised by critics (95 pts Bob Campbell & Wine Orbit) and offering excellent value, this expressive white wine is perfect as an aperitif or paired with oysters, ceviche, grilled fish, or summer salads.

Marlborough
Nouvelle-Zélande
Marlborough est de loin la région viticole la plus importante de Nouvelle-Zélande. Située à l’extrémité nord-est de l’Île du Sud, cette région sèche et ensoleillée abrite plus de 500 domaines et produit près de 75 % des vins néo-zélandais. Ses journées chaudes, ses nuits fraîches et ses sols alluviaux bien drainés créent des conditions idéales pour des vins aromatiques à l’acidité cristalline.
C’est ici qu’est né le style de Sauvignon Blanc de Marlborough qui a conquis le monde : éclatant, intensément fruité, avec une touche herbacée et une minéralité saline. Si le Sauvignon Blanc domine largement, Marlborough produit aussi d’excellents Pinot Noir, Chardonnay et Riesling, confirmant sa place de vitrine internationale du vin néo-zélandais.
Recommandé pour vous:
I was really surprised by the exotic fruit notes, especially passion fruit—something I had never tasted before. I recommend this wine with fresh fish, like ceviche, or other seafood.
