The “Rosé Champagne” of the Southern Hemisphere, boasting 94 pts from Decanter and 93 pts from Suckling!
The No.1 Rosé NV from No.1 Family Estate combines elegance and freshness with a captivating complexity that could only come from the traditional Champagne method. The purity of Pinot Noir fruit and the craftsmanship of Daniel Le Brun—a Frenchman from Champagne who fell in love with New Zealand—create a stunning sparkling rosé at a price that invites you to add two bottles to your cart. And with 94 points from Decanter and 93 from James Suckling, it’s practically a must!
Daniel Le Brun, a member of the historic Le Brun family of Champagne, brought 12 generations of expertise to New Zealand in 1985. In 1997, he founded No.1 Family Estate, a boutique winery dedicated exclusively to world-class sparkling wines made using the traditional method. His first wine, Cuvée No.1 Blanc de Blancs NV, released in 1999, remains a benchmark for New Zealand sparkling wines.
The No.1 Rosé NV is crafted using the Méthode Traditionnelle, composed of 96% Pinot Noir and 4% Chardonnay, and aged for over 30 months on the lees, giving it a creamy texture, aromatic depth, and irresistible brioche notes. Marlborough’s unique terroir brings vibrancy to the Pinot Noir, resulting in a sparkling wine with lively freshness and an impressive bouquet.
The No.1 Rosé NV from No.1 Family Estate is perfect for every special occasion—or simply because you deserve a few quality bubbles anytime!
