Rickety Bridge Winery

Rickety Bridge kann auf eine lange Tradition zurückblicken. Das Weingut aus dem wunderschönen Örtchen Franschhoek in Südafrika wurde bereits 1797 von Paulina De Villers gegründet. Für diese Zeit durchaus außergewöhnlich, dass eine Frau Besitzerin einer Farm werden konnte. Das historische Anwesen war ursprünglich Teil der großen Farm La Provence, die 1694 französischen Hugenottenbauern übergeben wurde. Im Laufe der Jahre wurde das Anwesen aufgeteilt und der Teil, der heute Rickety Bridge heißt, wurde Paulina De Villiers zugesprochen.

Lange Zeit galt das Weingut als ein wenig angestaubt, aber mit der Übernahme durch den jetzigen Besitzer Duncan Spence im Jahre 2000 ist viel auf dem Anwesen passiert. Die historischen Wirtschaftsgebäude wurden restauriert und neue hinzugefügt, um ein lebendiges und umfangreiches Wein-, Lifestyle- und Gastfreundschaftsunternehmen zu schaffen. Der seit 2018 agierende Kellermeister Donovan Ackermann, beaufsichtigt einen komplexen Betrieb, der die heimische Farm umfasst, sowie mehrere Weinbaugebiete in der Gegend und weiter entfernt wie zum Beispiel in Breedekloof.
