Brancott Estate have just released this new Organic series – Living Land.  Not content to simply make sure that their vineyards are organically thriving, this Kiwi producer has gone further – from revitalising wetlands to being part of Earth Hour. Proving that Marlborough has so much more to offer than just SB, there is also a Pinot Noir.

Sauvignon Blanc 2011 $19.99

Lush ripe stonefruit, citrus with melon & elderflower to complete the SB chorus. Flambouyant flavours supported by slightly crunchy acid along a long elderflower length.

Pinot Noir 2011 $19.99

A fresh velvety pinot with varietal cherry, nutmeg & savoury mushroom characters with some vegetal notes creeping in. The concentration & complexity lasts to the last warm spice finish. A good wine for kicking back & chatting with friends over dinner.

For more information, visit their website which is one of the more interesting & inviting that I have come across recently.
