The 2025 Babich Pinot Gris is a rich and expressive Marlborough white wine that combines freshness, texture and vibrant fruit character. Crafted from vineyards across the Waihopai and Wairau Valleys, it opens with lifted aromas of pear, ripe apple and citrus, layered with hints of ginger, spice and delicate floral notes.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a creamy texture, lively acidity and flavours of stone fruit, nectarine and red apple, finishing with soft spice and refreshing balance. Partial barrel fermentation and lees ageing add extra depth and complexity while maintaining a bright, approachable style.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent everyday Pinot Gris for customers who enjoy fuller, fruit-driven whites with texture and versatility. Fresh, polished and easy-drinking, it offers more richness and character than typical commercial Pinot Gris styles. Best enjoyed young over the next 2–4 years. Perfect with seafood, roast pork, creamy pasta, Asian cuisine or light poultry dishes.
