New Winery in S Africa

[intlnrgy]

Ellen is correct - Michael Back, who is known as a big viticultural innovator in SA, is also something of a social innovator, with his attempt to split with a long tradition of winery-owned housing for workers. The object is for the workers to be able to buy their own houses in a new development near Paarl. You can e-mail Michael for more info at backwine@iafrica.com, or contact Zelma Long, the well-known Sonoma winemaker whose husband is also involved in the venture.
