This year has certainly been one which will be remembered for many years to come – and as much as we acknowledge the challenges, we also believe in the importance of celebrating moments of joy and accomplishment. Boschendal has been fortunate to have created some of these special moments in 2020 – with many awards and accolades to remind us of the reward of passion, hard work and dedication.
