Babich Winemakers' Reserve Pinot Noir 2018

This Pinot Noir is more than just a wine - it's a labor of love from the Babich family. For over 100 years, they've been crafting exceptional wines in New Zealand, and the Babich Winemakers' Reserve Pinot Noir 2018 is no exception.

The grapes for this wine were grown on Babich's estate-owned Cowslip Valley vineyard in the Waihopai Valley of Marlborough. The family's commitment to sustainability means that the vineyard is managed with the utmost care, using organic and biodynamic practices.

The traditional winemaking process for this Pinot Noir involves fermentation in open vats with hand plunging. This hands-on approach allows for greater control over the wine's development, resulting in a smooth, full-flavoured wine that truly showcases the terroir of the region.

When you pour yourself a glass of Babich Winemakers' Reserve Pinot Noir 2018, you'll be greeted with aromas of dark cherry, plum, and spice. On the palate, you'll taste notes of blackberry, vanilla, and a hint of oak. This wine is medium-bodied with a silky texture and a long, satisfying finish.

This Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with a range of dishes, including roasted duck, grilled salmon, and mushroom risotto. It's also a great match for a cheese board featuring soft, creamy cheeses like brie or camembert.
