BABCHE

Victoria, Australia

Babche, a slavic term of endearment for Grandma, is run by Niki Nikolovska and her husband Tim Byrne on Victoria's beautiful Bellarine Peninsula. The project is an ode to Niki’s Macedonian grandparents who raised animals, grew their own fruits and vegetables, made cheese and bread, and, of course, produced their own wine. Babche is based on this handcrafted ethos - they use hand-cranked basket presses and their fermentations are long and rolling. While the grapes are currently being sourced from certified organic/biodynamic growers around Victoria, Niki and Tim are in the process of establishing their own vineyard and permaculture farm.
