Sustainably Crafted New Zealand Wine – 100 years in the making
Wednesday 9th August, 8 pm Start
Door Price: Members $14 / Guests $18
People thought Josip Babich was crazy back in 1912. Planting vines in West Auckland and then patiently making wine the difficult way – with great vision, graft, thoughtfulness, ingenuity, and true craft. That pioneering spirit is something that still runs deep in our veins today, and we’ll keep ‘paying it forward’ for as long as we exist.
Over 20 years ago, we registered our first sustainable vineyard – a New Zealand first. But we’re not content to look back because what you’ve done is not who you are. We’re more excited about our future than ever and applying 100 years and three generations of winemaking experience to sustainably craft the most drinkable wines from New Zealand to the world.
Sustainability is always better when shared. Babich’s iconic NZ wine regions: Marlborough is home to some of the world’s finest Sauvignon Blanc. And a second home to Babich since we established vineyards there in 1989. Hawkes Bay is internationally renowned for its soil profile – perfect for supple, robust
and sophisticated reds.
Wines for the evening will be:
- Family Estates Marlborough Organic Rose
- Family Estates Organic Albarino
- Family Estates Organic Chardonnay
- Irongate Gimblett Gravels Chardonnay
- Black Label Pinot Noir
- Classics Hawkes Bay Syrah
- Irongate 2017 Cabernet Merlot Franc
