About Catalina Sounds

New Zealand's Catalina water planes (known as flying boats) played a vital role across the South Pacific during and after World War II.

Catalina Sounds pays homage to this plane and the beauty of the Marlborough Sounds where it served and made its home.

Matthew Ward's aspiration at Catalina Sounds is to continue producing excellent quality wines of beautiful fruit expression, interest, finesse and balance. Striving to create wines of great honesty and integrity that are true to their site, while attempting to incorporate complexity and longevity into the wines.
