As the man who put Bot River on the map with his iconic Luddite shiraz, Cape Winemakers Guild member Niels Verburg has delivered an incredible wine story that’s set to become a family legacy.
Mossop’s big break was taking on the winemaker role in a brand new Stellenbosch winery called Tokara; nearly 10 years after leaving to run his own brand, he recounts his adventures in wine - and his love of surfing.
Juggling celebrity guests, world class wine, and a team of exceptional sommeliers, The Saxon’s Lloyd Jusa has one of the most high profile jobs in South African wine - and a lovely story behind his journey to one of the world’s most iconic hotels.
Starting your own wine brand sounds a grand, romantic adventure - but as House of Azari founder Siphiwe Katjene has discovered in the four years since launching her range of bubbles, it’s a tough (but rewarding) endeavour.
She makes the wine, she looks after the grapes, she fixes broken tractors - there’s nothing that Olifantsberg’s Elizma Visser can’t do, but producing Rhône inspired wine that’s gaining a global fan club remains the flagship role.
