Meet the Winemaker
Meet the winemaker is a short but informative interview of winemakers from
around the world. Many of whom I have the privilege of knowing.
Daniel Benton
“Once exposed (in the world of fine wine), I fell in love with the connection of vineyard to finished product.”
Mitch Cosentino
Cosentino has a gift for identifying fruit sources and is highly skilled and artistic in determining blends.
Matt Reid
Growing up… “Wine was always on the dinner table and I was allowed tiny, watered-down tastes until I was about 7.”
Dave Hughes
Dave served an apprenticeship as a distiller at African Distillers in 1956 and filled several positions before moving to South Africa in 1986.
Jill and Naji Boutros
“So many things at the time pointed in the direction of a move… I think it’s fair to say that we just read the signs and acted accordingly. “
Sune and Bartho Eksteen
“No other country in the world has such a vast spectrum of terroir as SA. We can compete internationally from top to bottom.”
