Babich Wines in one of New Zealand's pioneering wineries, who have been leading the charge of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc for several decades. This 2022 Babich Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is a fine example of this popular style; produced in a fuller, riper style with good textural and flavour complexity.
Opening with plenty of lemon blossom, lime and passionfruit notes on the nose, the palate is clean and fresh with textured guava, gooseberry and ripe citrus flavours. A vibrant, flavoursome, Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, this offers plenty of appeal for fans of this style at this discounted price.
"92 Points. A classic, vibrant and expressive bouquet of fresh red apple, citrus and tropical fruits. A layer of wet stone mineral and a fine saline note along with fresh herbs adds complexity. On the palate a crisp dry and refreshing mouthful of wine. High acidity with contrasting ripe citrus and tropical fruit flavours laced with fresh herbs. Balanced and well made with a decent length and moderate complexity. Best drinking from 2022 through 2025."- Cam Douglas, www.camdouglasms.com.
