Catalina Sounds Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2019
Dozen Price: $239.88
RRP: $27.00
The 2019 vintage release of Catalina Sounds Sauvignon Blanc offers a classical profile of grapefruit and blackcurrant bud, with tropical notes and a gentle nettle note in support. The palate is generous and soft, with riper acid than previous years, and a lovely precise and cleansing finish.

Winery & Vintage Info
Fruit for the 2019 vintage Catalina Sounds Sauvignon Blanc was predominantly sourced from the Waihopai vineyard Sound of White (35%), VB Premium at Fairhall (24%) and Muphy’s vineyard at the Spring Creek end of Rapaura Road (17%). The balance was sourced from Grovetown, Blind River, Central Wairau and Renwick.
The 2018/19 growing season was one of extremes but with a very positive outcome. Cool and wet conditions over flowering resulted in fewer berries per bunch and then a record dry spell through January and February ensured berries remained small and concentrated, bringing richness and weight to the 2019 release. More than ever, I have tried to allow the fruit to tell its story with transparency and as little handling as possible in the winery. Approximately 5% of the wine has been fermented in oak to build a textural profile in line with the Catalina house style. Winery Notes
