Founded in 1916, Babich is a family owned business which continues to strive to produce the best quality wine New Zealand has to offer. At 20 years of age in 1916, Josip Babich made his first New Zealand wine - under the name Babich Brothers. With a legacy of solid farming practices in place and a desire to produce only the best quality of wine - he created the foundations for what is Babich Wines today. Three generations of wine lovers, who all want to deliver to the consumer the best possible product, representing the best possible value, have produced wine at Babich. This award winning Sauvignon Blanc comes from the high quality, carefully selected sustainably farmed vineyards in New Zealand's Marlborough region.
Look for a bright bouquet, with passion fruit and pineapple aromas. The palate is powerful and rich. Flavors of gooseberry and pear join the tropical fruit following on from the nose. The wine is weighty and has a lingering and crisp finish. It works well with a white meat dish. Great with oysters or a green salad, too.

Pear drop, lime and Fuji apple flavors are juicy and fresh in this version, with notes of lemon zest and candied ginger. Drink now. 200,000 cases made, 47,000 cases imported.

The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough makes me think of a refreshing cocktail with its gooseberry and elderflower notes meeting mint and passionfruit in this crisp, dry style. It's an excellent, juicy thirst quencher for slugging with friends, chilled on a warm summer's day. It's not going to change your life or give you any intellectual pleasure, but that's not its purpose.
