nestled in nature

Babich Winery

The overall forms and colour selections were carefully selected to complement the surrounding natural palette.

Babich Winery

Nott Architects was engaged by Apollo Projects to design a stunning new Marlborough Winery for Babich Wines. The building’s architectural design includes modern office and lab areas, utilising natural light and providing viewing to the cellar.

The facility is designed to process approx. 6500 tonnes of fruit. The 4000 square metre building consists of a fully enclosed receival area and press bay, marc collection and marc pad, open red fermenters and bulk wine tank area. After fermentation the wines are blended and transported to the Henderson Valley winery for bottling.

Babich Winery

The innovative process design incorporates a number of energy-efficient features – including a fully insulated tank area and hot and cold glycol reticulation system, a passive cellar cooling system and highly efficient heat recovery system harnessing waste heat from the refrigeration plant – all designed to reduce environmental impact and increase energy efficiency.

The bulk form of the utilitarian building was designed with the stunning Marlborough backdrop in mind. With the expansive blue sky as a backdrop, complementary hues of creams and yellows to soft browns were selected. Resene Woodsman Natural (warm timber) stained cedar weatherboards clad the office blocks to simulate the natural foreground punctuated with three deliberate pops of colour – Resene St Kilda (mineral blue), Resene Middle Earth (pastoral green) and Resene Kombi (gold green).

The overall forms and colour selections were carefully selected to complement the surrounding natural palette.
