PREPARATION FOR NEW PLANTINGS

We started to take out the old vineyards and orchards to make place for the new plantings.  We are taking out old Palomino wine grape cultivar,  Hanepoot as well as Bullida apricot orchard.  The new plantings will consists of Chenin blanc,  Colombard and apricot cultivar Super Gold. 
Our area planted will grow by 2 ha.  This keeping up planning to enlarge the planting area to 60 ha over the next 5 years.  This falling in place with the idea of getting production up and the overheads lower.
