Babich Individual Vineyard Wakefield Downs Sauv Blanc 2010
In 2009 Babich started an Individual Vineyards Programme that is designed to capture these differing qualities by giving very special attention to selected parcels of fruit that clearly demonstrate the effect of the vineyard site on the wine style.
Reviews: "A stunning Awatere Sauvignon showing lovely youthful aromas of currant, lime zest and fresh herbs. The palate is engaging and lively with excellent fruit intensity and bright acidity leading to a long fine crisp finish. A beautifully linear and perfectly framed wine with plenty of appeal. At its best: now to 2013."

"Intense Sauvignon Blanc with pure, concentrated gooseberry, lemon grass, mineral and green capsicum flavours plus a suggestion of passion fruit. Sancerre-like wine with impressive length and a mouth filling texture."
