No 1 Family Estate
No.1 Family Estate, established 1997, brings something completely different to New Zealand's famous Marlborough region. Rather than making the region's typical Sauvignon Blanc, proprietors Adele and Daniel Le Brun have established No.1 Family Estate as a boutique 'methode Champenoise' sparkling winery. Situated on Marlboroughs 'Golden Mile', Rapaura Road, it is the only winery in the region specialising just in the production of traditional method sparkling wines. They are committed to using only the strictest methods, following the stringent rules stipulated in Daniel Le Bruns native home, Champagne. The results are impressive, with their extra-aged Reserve cuve in particular garnering high scores and winning awards.Cuve Virginie is a vintage Mthode Traditionelle crafted especially by Daniel as a proud tribute to his daughter Virginie. The wine is only made in exceptional vintages Tasting NotesA pretty bouquet with light stone fruit, honey and defined toasty autolysis. The fine mousse leads to flavours of brioche, white peach, soft citrus and green apple. Uplifted and vibrant with delicate autolysis followed by a silky, long dry finish. This is a wine with elegance and finesse.
