The Story Behind the Brand
Everything about this range seeks to reduce environmental impact and prolong the life cycle of the product.
The Pattern
Repurpose
Each of our bottles are decorated with a bespoke pattern inspired by the Cape, making the bottle, like the wine an art piece in itself. The artist behind the prints, Mark Eisen says: “I’ll admit, I’m quite taken by the idea of people falling in love with these bottles! I have this vision of someone leaning over to put a Protea wine bottle in the recycling bin and stopping themselves and thinking, ‘No, I’m going to keep this.’ And then it becomes a decoration, or a water bottle, or they put their ice tea in it, or olive oil. I love the idea that we might inspire that new way of thinking in people.”
The Cork
Reuse
Our Amorim Helix corks are twist-to-enjoy, ergonomically designed stoppers made from agglomerate cork, used with a glass bottle containing corresponding grooves to ensure an airtight seal. The Helix twist cork further enhances our emphasis on upcycling by preserving the wine tradition of a cork closure combined with a convenient way of resealing your bottle of wine.
The Bottle
Recycle
Given the versatility of the Protea range, on top of the fact that we make quality, terroir specific wines is that the final journey of the product completes the life cycle in a sustainable, conservation conscious manner. The virtues of glass recycling resonates with the ethos of the brand, only to start a new lifecycle in another guise, never to be lacking in providing new inspiration.
