About Babich
Babich is one of the most reputed wine names of New Zealand, because it is the oldest brand in the country. Its history dates back to 1912, when Joseph Babich understood the potential of the Marlborough region, considered as one of the premium wine-growing regions in the world today.
Currently, Babich grows grapes on some of the top-notch sites of New Zealand, like the ones below:
Henderson Valley Vineyard in Auckland
It was in 1919 that Joseph Babich understood that this lovely site, situated at the foothills of the Waitakere Mountain Range, would go on to become the prime vineyard of his wine brand.
