Odfjell’s quest is to make wines that are a true expression of the terroir. Our low-yield vineyards are handled with individual care. We hand-pick the grapes in order to ensure the fruit arrives at the winery as intact as possible. The name given to this wine is Babor which is the Spanish word for port side (left) in a nautical terms, and internationally recognized by a red lantern.
