Babich Black Label Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc was first produced in 2005 and is exclusive to restaurants and bars. The Black Label Sauvignon Blanc has been developed to complement food. Grapes from our Waihopal and Upper Wairau Valley Estates were picked, crushed and pressed with minimal skin contact. The juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks at various temperatures, and with a variety of yeast species to build in some textural and flavor complexity. A small percentage underwent malolactic fermentation also. After extensive tastings by the winemakers, this blend was assembled, lightly fined and bottled.

Fantastic bouquet of orchard fruits and sage, apple and tropical fruit, sweet basil and a flinty leesy quality. Complex, crisp, refreshing and dry on the palate, with flavors that mirror the nose. As the wine opens up in glass the complexity begins to build, leading to a long and delicious finish. Drink 2021-2025. – Decanter Magazine
