About Brancott Estate
BRANCOTT ESTATE™. Honoring our Marlborough heritage, Brancott Estate wines take their name from our cherished Brancott Vineyard, home of the original Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc; one of the world's favorite New Zealand wine styles. In 1973, Brancott Vineyard was planted with grapes, a decision that went against the popular opinion of the time that the South Island was too cold to grow grapes. In 1975, Brancott Vineyard was planted with the first Sauvignon Blanc grapes in Marlborough. This pioneering determination and skill of our winemakers and viticulturists continues to be evident in every bottle, as is the care and respect for the land that allows us to produce each and every one. Brancott Estate wines are sourced from multiple vineyards.
BRANCOTT ESTATE™ is committed to sustainable practices and is a founding member of New Zealand's original sustainable winegrowing initiative established in 1995. This program has since transformed into Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand (SWNZ). All vineyards and wineries are accredited under the scheme.
