Last night was the official launch of the Sumaridge Maritimus /N.S.R.I friendship. Holly Bellingham and Simon Turner, owners of Sumaridge wine estate have decided to donate R1 for every bottle of Maritimus produced. A cheque of R16 800 was handed over to Station 17 Hermanus.'We recognise and respect that while the maritime climate lends magic to our grapes - it puts others in peril. We are honoured to be able to do a little to help some very brave people help others,' said HollyA wonderful evening was enjoyed by all. We would again like to thank them for their generosity.
