Meet the Winemaker Masterclass: Nico Grobler of La Brune
We're hosting Nico Grobler, winemaker at La Brune, for two intimate seated masterclasses at Praelum.
La Brune was born from Nico's friendship with vigneron Bruno Lorenzon of Domaine Lorenzon in Mercurey. After regular visits to Burgundy for harvest, Nico fell in love with Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and set out to create wines with the finesse and restraint of Burgundian tradition. Following a decade as cellar master at Eikendal Vineyards in Stellenbosch, he now focuses exclusively on cool-climate wines with natural acidity, freshness, purity and great ageing potential.
The wines come from the Elgin Valley on the Cape South Coast, 40 miles southeast of Cape Town and just 8 miles from the Atlantic Ocean. Cooling winds and early-morning mists make Elgin home to some of South Africa's best Burgundian-style wines.
Join Nico for a deep dive into cool-climate viticulture and what it means for the glass, with a guided tasting of the full La Brune range.
Wines poured:
1. La Brune Chardonnay 2024
