The 2025 Babich Black Label Sauvignon Blanc is a rich and expressive Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc crafted to deliver extra depth, texture and food-friendly complexity. It opens with vibrant aromas of gooseberry, grapefruit and lime, layered with tropical notes of passionfruit, guava and feijoa alongside subtle garden herbs, smoke and mineral spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with lively acidity, a creamy texture and impressive concentration, balancing ripe citrus and tropical fruit with freshness and a lingering mineral finish. Partial wild fermentation and lees ageing add extra complexity while maintaining the bright Marlborough character the wine is known for.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is one of the best premium Marlborough Sauvignon Blancs for customers who enjoy fuller, more textured styles rather than simple crisp examples. Rich yet refreshing, it’s highly versatile and exceptionally food-friendly, offering impressive value and consistency vintage after vintage. Best enjoyed now or over the next 2–4 years. Perfect with oysters, seafood, chicken dishes, Asian cuisine or fresh summer dining.
