Babich Black Label Pinot Noir 2023

From Babich, the Black Label Pinot Noir 2023 offers a layered, savoury-fruited style with dark cherry, cedar and spice aromas, lifted by fresh herbs and nutmeg. The palate is expansive with notable volume and a medium weight, balancing pretty, sweet cherry notes with raspberry and juicy acidity. As it opens, savoury touches of leather and earth add depth, while soft, fine tannins bring subtle texture through the mid-palate. A warm finish with a hint of resin completes the profile.

At the table, it pairs particularly well with a stir-fry of cubed lamb and eggplant, and also works as a confident match for a steak and mushroom pie.
