Bosman Family Vineyards - A 1.5 litre bottle of Bosman Family Vineyards Optenhorst Chenin Blanc 2019
“The Bosman were planning to uproot the old Chenin vineyard on their farm Optenhorst. I said: Just let me give it a try, and so we picked the grapes and pressed them. Three months later we tasted the wine from the barrel…we were speechless." - Corlea Fourie, Cellar Master.

The Optenhorst Chenin Blanc was planted in 1952, making it the third oldest Chenin vineyard in the country and officially an Old Vine wine. We endeavour to let the wine express its unique heritage which involves natural fermentation, maturation in older barrels for a short period to minimise the effects of the wood and allow the gentle, multi-layered fruit to come through. We believe that Wellington, and particularly the Bovlei, will become a bastion of good Chenins; and that the Optenhorst Chenin Blanc will lead the way.

Brookdale Estate - The Whole Shebang - 9 x 750ml bottles of Brookdale Wines.
A true Cinderella story, the estate was once overgrown and underused. The Rudd family saw its enormous potential and acquired the property with a clear vision in mind – to create a world-class country estate that produces fine and interesting wine blends using unusual varieties in a South African context. Before vines could be planted, alien vegetation had to be cleared, and the balance of nature restored. The Rudd family successfully cleared the 67 hectares of land, salvaging a block of Chenin Blanc that would become its maiden release and planted the remaining 53 hectares with indigenous vegetation and gardens for guests of the Manor House to explore.

As ardent wine connoisseurs, Brookdale Estate is the pinnacle of the Rudd family’s passion. Here, Mediterranean varieties, a unique Paarl terroir and innovative winemaking techniques are brought together under the visionary hand of owner, Tim Rudd, and winemaker, Kiara Scott Farmer. Brookdale Estate is home to an elegant Manor House with sprawling gardens, a Bistro, Tasting Room and state-of-the-art Wine Cellar
