Vine Grafting Process at Bosman Adama

While the winter season is relatively quiet on other wine farms, here at Bosman it’s a hive of activity when our community moves into sheds to cut and graft 12 million ‘stokkies’ (vines) per year. It is a massive logistical challenge too as various clones of each varietal are grafted onto various types of rootstock (350 combinations), depending on the terroir of the farm where these grafted vines will be planted. So next time your pour a glass of Bosman, bear in mind that at least 50 pairs of hands were involved in the making of that wine, all from our farm, and all ‘dedicated to better’.
