Bryan MacRobert

Bryan MacRobert is a name that is synonymous with innovation and adventure in the world of wine. Hailing from South Africa, Bryan's journey to becoming a renowned producer has been nothing short of extraordinary. With a passion for winemaking, Bryan began his career as an Ex-Wine Cellar Young Gun, learning from some of the best in the business at The Sadie Family Wines in the Swartland and Terroir al Límit in Priorat. It was here that he honed his skills and developed his unique approach to winemaking. In 2010, Bryan took a leap of faith and bottled the first vintage of his own wines under the Bryan MacRobert Wines label. It was a bold move, but one that paid off as his wines quickly gained recognition for their quality and distinct character. In fact, Bryan's wines played a crucial role in elevating the Swartland as a fine wine region. However, Bryan's thirst for adventure and desire to push the boundaries led him to a new destination in 2013. While travelling, he met a 'Riojan' winemaker and fell in love, both with the winemaker and the region. Bryan was captivated by the traditional winemaking practices of Rioja, but also saw an opportunity for change and innovation. Thus, Laventura - 'The Adventure' - was born. Since then, Bryan has been making waves in the heavily traditional Rioja wine scene with his avant-garde approach and unwavering commitment to quality. His wines are a true reflection of his spirit and passion, each one a unique and exciting adventure for the senses. With a maximum of 200 words, it is impossible to fully capture the essence of Bryan MacRobert and his journey as a producer. But one thing is certain - he is a force to be reckoned with in the world of wine, and his dedication to pushing boundaries and creating exceptional wines is nothing short of inspiring.
