Sourced from Marlborough’s renowned vineyards, this Pinot Gris showcases the region’s ability to produce wines with both intensity and finesse. Babich, a family-owned New Zealand producer with over a century of winemaking heritage, crafts this expression to highlight the variety’s natural aromatics and textural appeal.
Nose: Pungent aromas of freshly sliced pear, both green and brown, alongside sweet apple and a hint of ripe white melon. Subtle notes of nectarine, lime, and a whisper of nutmeg add complexity to the aromatic profile.
Palate: Rich and textured with exuberant tropical fruit character balanced by a flinty minerality. Honeyed notes emerge mid-palate, while crisp acidity keeps the wine lively and refreshing rather than weighty.
Finish: Clean and harmonious, with lingering stone fruit and a touch of lanolin that adds an appealing roundness without heaviness.
Pair this versatile white with grilled fish, roasted chicken, or pork dishes with fruit-based glazes. The wine’s texture and acidity make it equally suited to creamy pasta or Asian-influenced cuisine with subtle spice.
Serve chilled between 8-10 degrees Celsius in a standard white wine glass to showcase the aromatics. Rated at 90-91 points by multiple critics, this is a wine that appeals to both casual enthusiasts and discerning palates looking for quality at an accessible price point for everyday enjoyment or thoughtful gifting.
