We believe that winemaking is part science, part alchemy: in the process of coaxing the flavours from the grapes we provide a window for some magic to enter the world. The Douglas Green winemaking team remains true to tried-and-tested tradition, but also draws on modern techniques and innovative processes in a sustainable manner. Our overarching aim is to create distinctly fresh, fruit-driven, deliciously drinkable wines. In order to do so we draw from the vineyards of hand-selected vignerons and entrust the grapes to our dedicated oenology team who manage and control the process from the vineyard to the bottle.Â

Tasting Notes
Pale gold with a vibrant green glow. Exuberant passion fruit, ripe
peaches and pineapple on first impression embellished with honey suckle grace
that carries through to a generous yet well-tempered palate. Packed ripe
fruit flavours freshened up by a tangy citrus acidity on the finish.
History
For
over 80 years, we have sourced and selected grapes to best express our South
African wine land origins. Douglas Green was convinced that the quality and
character of the varied vineyards of the Western Cape should not be confined,
but rather combined to express the best of each region. Continuing a
tradition of innovation and quality, the Douglas Green winemaking team is
dedicated to producing Cape Wine at its best. Our quest is to source fruit
from only the best vineyards and growers, from the best-suited regions for
each variety to create our distinctive fruit-driven signature style wines. By
selecting and sourcing grapes from the broad boundaries of the Cape
winelands, we achieve consistent, high quality standards, vintage after
vintage.
Regional Information

Origin Western Cape with fruit sourced from Robertson, Bonnievale, Wellington

Vinification Details
The grapes were vinified separately in appointed cellars under the
care and control of our Oenologist. 50% is fermented on partial solids at
18C for richness and body, whilst the rest is cold fermented at 14C in
stainless steel tanks to retain purity and freshness of the fruit. Final
blending and bottling takes place at our cellars in Wellington.
