About No.1 Family Estate

This family-owned Marlborough winery is run by Daniel Le Brun, whose ancestors have been making wine since 1684 and practicing Méthode Traditionelle for over 40 years. They're committed exclusively to that traditional champagne method here in the Wairau Valley, where the climate and soils remind Daniel of Champagne's best vintage years. Stop by the cellar door for a complimentary tasting of their sparkling wines.
