		<description><![CDATA[A landmark wine and hospitality destination in the Stellenbosch winelands, Spier Wine Farm has begun an extensive refurbishment of its hotel to reflect the vision and philosophy of its owners, the Enthoven family.  Spier is known and celebrated in South Africa and abroad for its award-winning wines, its regenerative approach to farming and business, and its support of contemporary South African artists.  With significant refurbishments planned from mid-March 2024, reopening in 2025, Spier’s hotel will offer curated immersive experiences on this historic working wine farm and an even more purposeful approach to food, wine and wellness. “Our farm and hotel will be an immersive place of peace and connection. Simple and timeless, with elegant comfort that never shouts. Set in a magnificent wild Cape garden, it’ll be a more personal, more encompassing expression of our family’s vision,” said Mariota Enthoven, who lives on the farm and is leading the project. Spier’s 80 rooms will reflect traditional Cape style with elegantly updated finishes and artwork curated by Spier Arts Trust from the Spier Arts Collection. Ground floor rooms open out onto wild Cape indigenous gardens while upper level accommodation offers magnificent views of the gardens and farm from Juliet balconies.  Plans [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Spier received silver at the African Responsible Tourism Awards 2018 in the category of Decent Work and Inclusion at World Travel Market Africa in Cape Town last night. Companies making up the strong longlist were scrutinised by judges on the lookout for a meaningful engagement with economically poor, socially excluded and marginalised local people through employment opportunities and community interventions. The nominees were expected to go above and beyond the legal requirements in relation to wages, working conditions and skills development and be working with local producers to facilitate and grow their participation in the supply chain. The award recognises that not only does Spier’s entry-level wages far exceed the industry-regulated minimum wages – we also have a comprehensive array of initiatives to tackle youth employment and enhance the wellbeing, skills and development of our staff. These include: Pinotage Youth Development Academy: Practical work experience is provided at Spier in various aspects of the business in this programme, which seeks to educate and employ disadvantaged youth in the wine industry. Harambee Youth Employment Accelerator: We recruit entry-level staff through Harambee, an initiative which sources, trains and places unemployed young people from disadvantaged backgrounds into their first jobs. Training: This year [...]]]></description>
