Ep 19, Johan Reyneke: Biodynamic Winemaking in South Africa

Johan Reyneke studied philosophy, and fell in love with environmental ethics. He got a student job working in vineyards, and converted a small vineyard to organic and biodynamic and things just grew from there. Today he has 120 hectares under certified Demeter status in Stellenbosch, South Africa, and a winery to go with it. Johan is happily married with two daughters. He loves surfing, martial arts and riding his mountain bike. When life calms down he would like to resume his studies and finish his Masters in philosophy.
