Third Dominion
The Third Dominion represents a period of structure and resilience for the wine industry. In 1918, the formation of the KWV brought coordination and stability to producers during difficult economic conditions.
This era also coincided with global upheaval during the Second World War. Despite international disruption, vineyards across the Cape continued to produce, sustaining both livelihoods and the long traditions of cultivation.
Structure and Survival
The Third Dominion represents a period of organisation and resilience for the wine industry. The founding of the KWV created a central body that brought stability and coordination to wine production during challenging economic times.
During the years of the Second World War, the Cape’s vineyards continued to produce and sustain livelihoods despite global disruption.
Every war begins as a whisper. Every dynasty as a single name spoken in the dark.
