Made for Drink and Brancott Estate partnered on a series of new limited-edition snacks that are perfect for pairing with the New Zealand-based wine brand's premium libations. The products include the Pickled Onion and Chilli & Lemon potato chip flavors, which are formulated to go well with a glass of Brancott's Classic Sauvignon Blanc and Flight Sauvignon Blanc, respectively. The crisps come in 125-grams packets priced at £3.99 each and help to make Brancott's wine more approachable by encouraging drinkers to enjoy it with a traditionally lowbrow snack.
Wine Portfolio Director at Pernod Ricard Lucy Bearman commented on the Made for Drink and Brancott Estate partnership saying, "As a brand, Brancott Estate is all about how seeing the world differently can lead to wonderful things – an approach that led the brand to be the first to plant Sauvignon Blanc vines in Marlborough. So, our latest collaboration with Made for Drink is all about savouring the unconventional and inviting crisp and wine lovers to taste life on the flipside.”
