The Rising River Wines were inspired by the river that flows through the Franschhoek Valley and the picturesque mountains that surround this idyllic landmark town. All the grapes used to make this wine were selected from top quality vineyards in the Western Cape.

Throughout history, lands have stood witness to cycles of the river rising and falling, orchestrated by the cadence of changing seasons. The Rising River Wines are inspired by the Franschhoek River that flows through the Franschhoek Valley. Produced as a diffusion line to the principle Rickety Bridge range, Rising River encompasses the grand history of its surroundings and celebrates grapes sourced across quality vineyards across the Western Cape with winemaking overseen by Mari Kotzé.
