The Rangaka Family are the founders of the M'hudi brand and the main characters in the M'hudi Boutique Wines adventure. Having left our successful professional careers we settled down to learning new and specialised skills of viticulture and wine making to establish the now blossoming M'hudi Brand. In 2003, the family moved to the Western Cape and settled on a 42-hectare wine-grape and fruit producing farm in the Koelenhof area just 15km from Stellenbosch. Far from being a Cape winelands jewel, the farm was derelict, but to us it was the first step to participation in a lifestyle, culture and economic sector few Black people had the opportunity to partake in.
M’hudi Boutique Wines is a South African Wine company wholly owned and managed by a Black South African family, based on our very own vineyard. We are the first to lay claim to this prestigious honour. This blog documents our exciting, gratifying and sometimes arduous venture into the weird and wonderful world that is the Wine Industry.
