It’s been an exciting year, lots of traveling, marketing and finally getting a website off the ground; www.luddite.co.za - let us know what you think.
We have just heard that we were awarded 4.5 stars in the Platter – 4yrs in a row!
The
CWG wines came out tops – might have had something to do with the name:
“2 for Listening” thought it was time to name a wine after one of the
children and that suits Kim perfectly, as his teacher said: he is a
wonderful child just never listens. The wines got great reviews,
achieving over 90 points in both the Wine Spectator and Decanter. This
was reflected at the Auction with the wines selling at record prices.
Niels and his coach in the thick of things.
One
of the major highlights was finally getting the Bot River Barrel Race
up and running, literally. The Bot River Primary school decorated the
barrels and will be getting them back in the New Year with trees
planted in them to brighten up the school. 10 teams took part and a
great day was had by all. The money raised will be donated to the Bot
River Education Trust.
If
anyone is interested in coming to harvest next year – 2008, please let
us know soonest as this has become and bit of party and we need to
restrict it to 60 people. We are only going to let you pick 2 rows
each and the “beer truck” will be around on a regular basis to keep you
going.
HAVE A FANTASTIC FESTIVE SEASON FROM ALL OF US - WE ARE HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS SO IF IN THE AREA, POP IN!
CHEERS
Niels, Penny and the kids
(No, I still do not do photos, and that's our daughter Daisy - not a young girlfriend! xx Penny)
