Tasting Notes

Classic pear and ginger aromas with white fleshed peach and a hint of rose. Ripe apple on entry mingle with peach and other stone fruits on the lush and textured mid-palate. Juicy and fresh, but plenty of warmth and a long spicy finish.

Parcels were harvested from our Echelon and Cowslip Valley Vineyards in the Waihopai Valley and our Selmes Rd Vineyard in the Wairau. From the Waihopai we get stone fruit, floral notes and concentration. From Selmes Road we get roundness volume and classic pear/ ginger flavours. The fruit spends about 4 hours on skins to extract more flavour and build mouthfeel. While predominately tank fermented, a significant proportion is fermented in seasoned oak barrels to increase complexity.

Food Pairing – The Marlborough Pinot Gris works well with snapper fillets, rolled in fresh breadcrumbs and shallow fried, or with hot baked ham and glazed kumara.

About Babich

From their diverse vineyards to your table, Babich wines offer a direct connection to New Zealand, the beautiful country they call home. The love of the craft. Doing things by hand. And caring for the land. They’re all ingredients of Babich’s slow, careful process in an ever-changing, always-on world. They wouldn’t have it any other way.

People thought Josip Babich was crazy back in 1912. Planting vines in remote New Zealand, then patiently making wine the difficult way – with vision, thoughtfulness, ingenuity, and true craft. That hard-working spirit is something that still runs deep in their veins today; and they’ll keep ‘paying it forward’ for as long as they exist.

Babich will never stop striving to delight wine drinkers and make the everyday extraordinary – so you can taste the care that goes into their wines. From grape, to glass. Every time.
