AWARDS
What’s in the name?

Everyone at Bon Courage felt it was time to honor this remarkable father and son team. It resulted in the launching of their new range, called “like father, like son”, - paying tribute to a truly complementary team. André Bruwer and his son, Jacques, combine their mastery, personal attention and love for wine to produce these well balanced wines – truly a reflection of two minds!

The range is released in 1 litre bottles and consists of a dry white (Colombard/Chenin Blanc), dry red (Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon) and a Rosé (Pinotage Rosé). With the well-priced “like father, like son” range they can now cater for all income groups.
