Rickety Bridge Wine Estate in Franschhoek has joined forces with Lannice Snyman to create an innovative range of co-branded gourmet products.

The Franschhoek wine estate, Rickety Bridge, has a winemaking history dating back to the 17th century. It was part of the original La Provence farm granted to the first French Huguenots who settled in Oliphantshoek and renamed the area, Franschhoek. Over the years La Provence was subdivided and in 1797 the land which is now known as Rickety Bridge wine estate was granted to the widow, Paulina De Villiers.
