Upland Organic Estate

The brandy is made in very limited quantities, hand selected from the finest of each year’s produce. The character of Upland brandy is unmistakable. Handcrafted in the foothills of Wellington in tiny quantities, this brandy is distilled from organically farmed grapes in copper alembic stills and matured for over a decade in seasoned French oak. Rich golden in colour, the nose opens with wafts of dried peach, apricot, pineapple and citrus zest layered with sweet vanilla and subtle spice. The palate is dry and complex, revealing baked quince, toasted almond and hints of clove. A smooth, dry finish lingers with echoes of oak, floral citrus and a Cognac-like elegance. An artisanal triumph of purity and restraint. It’s perfect for purists who appreciate old-world style combined with a dollop of South African spirit.
