We’re giving a special shoutout to Fritz Damons – our ‘vineyard whisperer’ 🧑🌾🍇
Fritz grew up in the region and when he joined as a full-time employee in 2009, he had already been part of our family for years.
Starting as a general worker, Fritz learned from the land and leaned into his natural leadership skills. Today, he’s the team leader in charge of all our vineyard management – and he wants to share his knowledge and experience with his younger team members
“It was always my dream to work with my own team of people. I didn’t think that it would ever happen, but it did,” he says. “I am glad that Dirk recognised that in me, and for my family’s support.”
