Since planting the first vineyards in 2004, the Partnership Vineyards project has grown from a dream and a few vines planted in the promising soil of the farm Highlands, to the reality of a commercial farm cultivating wine grapes.
The concept of Partnership Vineyards was born and today 151 previously disadvantaged people from the Riebeek Valley are partners in the farm which will not only pay them dividends the moment the project becomes profitable, but will also give them ownership of land and their piece of Africa. Shares in Partnership Vineyards can be bequeathed but cannot be sold.
More than growing some of the best quality fruit in the Swartland area, the farm has realized the dreams and longings of many of the people living and working in the Riebeek Valley and surrounds.
