TASTING NOTES

A symphony of tropical sensations envelops your palate, as the vivacious notes of kiwi, honeydew melon, papaya with hints of lemon zest. Beneath the surface, undertones of passion fruit adds a layer of complexity, weaving together the spectrum of flavours into a harmonious melody. The wines beauty lies in its artful equilibrium, where the well-balanced acidity strikes a perfect chord. 

VINEYARDS

Two beautiful vineyard sites are selected for The Pledge Our Origin.

Durbanville: The vineyard is planted in loam soils on a Southerly slope, with an East-West row direction. The cool ocean breeze and elevation of 290m infuse the grapes with a distinctive, crisp character. 

Stellenbosch: Two selected blocks on the foothills of the magnificent Helderberg was planted in 2007 and 2008 in Oakleaf soils with a North-East row direction. The altitude ranges from 240m to 316m, resulting in multiple layers throughout the fruit profile.

WINEMAKING

Minimum of 3 hours on the skins for optimum fruit extraction. After the juice settled clear for two days, we inoculate with a selected yeast strain. Each batch are vinified separately and fermented in stainless steel tanks at 12°C-15°C. Thereafter, the wine is kept on the lees as long as possible. It is then blended to showcase a seamlessly integrated expression of the Coastal region.
