Brad brings a wealth of experience, having spearheaded household brands such as Bramptons and Boschendal. He will now apply his creative energy to promoting the many fascinating attributes of Oak Valley, and, in particular, their outstanding wines.
When asked how he wanted to impact the brand over the coming 5 years, his response was candid, saying….Oak Valley is absolutely remarkable, it literally has some of the ‘coolest' vineyards in South Africa and the sheer beauty, heritage and diversity of the farm creates incredible wines with depth of character.
