#BosmanFamilyVineyards is Viticulturist of the Year. Its Bosman Adama plant improvement unit, “the most prominent transformation scheme in the winelands” is 26% owned by a workers’ trust. It's a major supplier of vine cuttings, mostly of drought- and heat-tolerant varieties.🧵6/8

TRUST THE PROCESS | Romans described fides as a command to trust. In grafting vines and winemaking, a relationship like this is always present between soil, climate and people. . #bosmanwines #heartWellington #vineyard #SAHarvest2023 #southafrica #vineyardvisit #winemaker

We are saddened by the news of the passing of #wineindustry #legend, Dave Hughes. Dave has left a tangible mark on the South African wine fraternity. He will leave a void and be sorely missed by the thousands whose lives he touched in his inimitable gentle way. RIP Dave.
