Croatian-born Josip Babich made his first Kiwi wine in 1916 and the third-generation today is still going strong. From the 60ha certified organic Headwaters Vineyard this has great purity and vibrancy of apple, peach, orange blossom and zesty citrus acidity with a wild-yeast tang. Great quality for the price.
