✨ Tekniske specifikationer

Brancott Estate holds a legendary status in New Zealand's wine history, famously planting the first commercial vineyards in Marlborough in the 1970s. While celebrated for whites, their exploration of Pinot Noir in the region's clay-rich Southern Valleys proved that Marlborough could produce red wines of exceptional depth and structure. The 'Letter Series' represents the pinnacle of their craft, with the letter 'T' specifically designated for this flagship Pinot Noir. Sourced from select low-yielding vineyards, this wine showcases the cooler climate's ability to yield intense dark cherry, plum, and subtle savory spice notes. The grapes undergo traditional fermentation before aging in French oak barriques, resulting in a wine that beautifully balances vibrant fruit purity with refined, velvety tannins and a touch of smoky complexity.

🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten

Brancott Estate blev oprindeligt grundlagt som Montana Wines i 1934 af Ivan Yukich og sidenhen opkaldt efter vinhusets ikoniske hjemmemark. Huset indtager en legendarisk position i vinhistorien som den pioner, der i 1973 plantede de allerførste vinstokke i Marlboroughs Brancott Valley. Dette modige pionerarbejde revolutionerede newzealandsk vinavl og førte i 1979 til lanceringen af landets første Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, som satte en helt ny global standard for druesorten. I dag er vinhuset en hjørnesten hos Pernod Ricard Winemakers og råder over førsteklasses terroirs i Marlborough, Hawke's Bay og Gisborne. Filosofien bygger på innovation, præcis løvvægsstyring og bæredygtig vindyrkning. Brancott Estate er verdenskendt for sine levende og aromatisk intense Sauvignon Blanc-vine samt udtryksfulde, kølige Pinot Noir-vine og fint strukturerede Chardonnayer, hvilket eksemplificeres i prestigelinjer som Letter Series og den eksklusive Chosen Rows.
