About Our Name

The name “Brookdale” takes us back to a horse farm in New Jersey where the Seitz Family was raised.  The original farm in New Jersey has since been converted into a community college and a state park, still bearing the name Brookdale.  In addition, today you will find Brookdale Farm, located in Kentucky where another family member founded a well-renowned racehorse breeding farm in 1983.  I am also from a family who raised horses throughout my entire childhood and into my adult years.  For these reasons, you will notice a horse on our Brookdale wine label front which ties the family history together.
