R350
‘NEW. A blend of approximately 50% Grenache Blanc and the rest Piquepoul Blanc, Roussanne and Marsanne. Complex aromatics of green, white and yellow fruit, herbs, spice, some flinty reduction and a little waxy character. Concentrated fruit, texture that starts creamy but ends pithy and well-integrated acidity – layers of flavour, the finish long and dry. Alc: 13%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 94/100
‘Clean aromas of Asian pear, white honey, blossom and crushed chalk. Textured and detailed, the palate has a floaty feel, like club soda. Young quince, apples and melon abound, curving along a line of salted butterscotch to a deeper shade of waxy honeycomb. On the mid-palate the sensation of peaches and cream is run through with a lifted, lemony acidity as the wine crests into a citrus-toned finish.’ – Winemaker

Producer information | Nestled in the corner of the majestic Du Toitskloof Pass, the Brookdale Estate vineyards are exposed to strong winds that reduce the crop but offer much-needed cooling in Paarl’s warm climate. It’s the perfect recipe for producing wines of real character. Brookdale extends over 80 hectares with 27 planted to vine and the remainder left to revert to its natural habitat. The historic estate has been lovingly restored by the Rudd family, with the Manor House rebuilt and the vineyards rejuvenated and replanted. Bird and animal life are rich and abundant. Every season brings different moods, different hues and different lives. |
