If you’re the kind of person who thinks “five-course wine-paired dinner” sounds like a love language, mark your calendar: Brookdale Estate’s Winemaker’s Dinner is happening on 19 June, and it’s going to be unforgettable.
Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Paarl mountains, this exclusive evening is a rare chance to dine with the minds behind the wine.
Winemakers Xander Sadie and Shanice du Preez will be hosting, pouring, and sharing the stories behind each bottle—and trust us, there’s a lot more than grapes going on in those glasses.
For R750 per person (wine included), guests will be treated to five beautifully curated courses, each one artfully paired with a standout wine from the Brookdale collection. The menu is a flavour adventure—from a truffle-foamed Mushroom Cappuccino to a delicate Kingklip with saffron & mussel beurre blanc, all the way to a decadent white chocolate and mascarpone mousse finale.
Here’s a peek at the line-up:
-
Mushroom Soup with Truffle Foam paired with Bradbourne White Blend 2024
-
Gnocchi Puttanesca with a sip of Sixteen Field Blend 2024
-
Poached Kingklip matched to Old Vine Chenin Blanc 2023
-
Smoked Duck & Springroll with Twenty Field Blend 2024
-
And dessert? White Chocolate Mascarpone Mousse & Mason Road Cap Classique
It’s refined, relaxed, and full of flavour—just like Brookdale itself.
Booking is essential, and spots are limited. So grab a friend (or three), dress to impress, and get ready to raise a glass to local wine, bold flavour, and the people who make it all happen.
