The 2001 vintage was another classic with very low yields. This resulted in fruit displaying the classic intense flavours and aromas which characterise Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, enabling us to continue our style of rich ripe flavours, moderate acidity and excellent length of flavour.Babich Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is an ideal aperitif wine, and can also be enjoyed with pasta, seafood, white meats and vegetarian dishes.Try it with a seafood and asparagus risotto.
