Embracing our heritage and future
You may have seen our newly rebranded wines on the shelves, but this journey goes far beyond just changing labels. It marks a beautiful new era for Vergelegen Wine Estate, where we celebrate our exceptional wines alongside our dedication to our people, our land, and our rich legacy.
On Saturday, 19 October, we gathered in the spirit of celebration, united by a shared mission: to embrace the NEW while honouring the OLD of Vergelegen Estate. Our brand new elegantly designed Riverside Conservatory venue played host to this celebration that truly encompassed the beauty of every era at Vergelegen. Inspired by vintage charm, our event paid tribute to the heritage that shaped us while embracing the promise of the future. Vergelegen stands as a timeless gem of South African wine, today, tomorrow, and always.
“While we celebrate our achievements, we must also remember those who paved the way for us. This blend of respect for our past and commitment to our future is what guides us as we strive to leave a meaningful legacy for generations to come," says our MD, Wayne Coetzer.
As we unveil our restructured wine range in elegant new packaging, our new wedding venue, and all the other exciting happenings on our farm, we reaffirm our commitment to innovation and excellence.
Each bottle of our wine is a story – a moment in time that reflects the complexities of our terroir and the spirit of our team, and each Vergelegen experience is an opportunity to shine.
Join us on this journey as we create lasting memories and a build a legacy together!
Our new Riverside Conservatory venue
Introducing our stunning new event space – The Riverside Conservatory – a French green glass house designed to harmonise with its surroundings and offer extraordinary weddings and events.
Crafted by a local company, this exquisite marquee embodies our commitment to supporting local businesses. The soft, beautiful Vergelegen French green required meticulous attention to detail over a nine-month design process, culminating in a two-week construction phase. With its unique arches and inspiration drawn from iconic venues like Kew Gardens, this semi-permanent structure is not only a masterpiece but also offers the rare flexibility to adapt for future events.
What truly sets the Riverside Conservatory venue apart is its exclusivity. We will host only a limited number of weddings and functions each year to ensure an intimate and special atmosphere.
This enchanting venue promises to create unforgettable experiences in a captivating setting that feels both luxurious and uniquely Vergelegen.
