Lise Charest Gagne rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Delicious and smooth with balance acidity. This sauvignon blanc is from Malborough in New Zealand. Chock full of ripe citrus fruit and stone fruit. Lovely aromas of Meyer lemons, pink grapefruit and green pear. I’m dreaming of a warm summer sunset! I enjoyed this wine with a spiralized zucchini pasta with a lemon parmesan sauce topped with seafood. Tasted March 2017.

Monique Sosa - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Zesty yummy goodness! Standout aromas and flvours include lime, spring lawn (no joke), green mangoes and fresh zesty herbs (sage, basil). It's light bodied, juicy and refreshing with a clean lemon finish. Enjoy with tuna sashimi & mango-jalapeño salsa. Tasted Jan 2017 - @sommsosa | bespoketastings.ca

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Wow. Loved this New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc 2015 vintage. Loads of spirited racy lemon lime with herbaceous notes of lemongrass and thyme. Mouthwatering to a new level. Pairs well with calamari, dry rubbed ribs, tuna sashimi. Tasted 2017. Rated 89/100.

Babich Winery has been family-owned and operated since 1916. Their Black Label Sauvignon Blanc was first produced in 2005. The 2015 Black Label Sauvignon Blanc was fermented at controlled and cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks to keep fresh the varietal flavours fresh. A small portion of juice was fermented in old oak barrels to contribute to the weight and complexity of the wine. - Community Wine Reviews
