Babich 2010 Pinot Noir, Marlborough, New Zealand
Our love affair continues with a highly underrated category: New Zealand Pinot Noir! New Zealand has been producing Pinot Noir for about the last 20 years and are establishing a respectable presence. The New York Times declared Babich an “excellent value in Pinot Noir,” and we couldn’t agree more. The bouquet is a mix of strawberry, plus, and savory forest floor. Strawberry is also on the palate with a touch of earthy spice, with finely textured tannins produce a soft and supple wine. Try with game dishes such as quail, turkey and duck, salmon, or pork or lamb dishes.

Enjoy cherries, blackberries, porcini mushroom, violet, coffee and rosemary on the nose and palate. Balanced acidity and elegant tannins lead to a long finish- pair with roast chicken, roast duck, or beef bourguignon. Joseph Carr also created the very popular “Josh” wines- he has a knack for producing great wines that provide a superb value.
