Description

"Challenging tradition, breaking the wine label mold through the use of funky, innovative design. We believe this wine over delivers on the price point, punching above its weight. Forbidden Vines is very different for our family brand, it’s not the modern classic.” David Babich, Chief Executive Officer

Pear and clover honey with lime blossom and stonefruit on the nose. Fresh and sweet fruited entry, apple and pear to the forewith ginger notes also. Satisfyingly creamy mid-palate with lingering apricot.

Parcels of grapes were harvested from several of their Marlborough vineyards. The majority of juice in the winery was fermented in-tank at various temperatures, and with various yeasts to capture varietal character and build interest. Some skin contact & extended lees stirring before and after ferment. Some skin contact & extended lees stirring before and after ferment. 4 months on lees.

Once Forbidden, now simply irresistible. Forbidden Vines, a new release from Babich Wines. Delightful wines sure to please with distinct ‘WOW’ factor and disruptive packaging. Perfect for everyday drinking.

Food Pairing: Works well with snapper fillets, rolled in fresh breadcrumbs and shallow fried, or with hot baked ham and glazed kumara.
