South African Virtual Tasting with Winemaker Izele van Blerk
An online masterclass with the KWV Mentors winemaker.
The KWV name is historically synonymous with South African wine and brandy - often the everyday drinking end of the spectrum. Since its launch in 2006, The Mentors range has established itself as one of the most sought-after premium brands in the South African wine landscape. Built around a philosophy of expressing terroir and pioneering new wines and winemaking techniques, it is wine that showcases the original philosophy of KWV, and the rich history and depth of expertise at one of South Africa’s leading wine producers and exporters.
Highly acclaimed winemaker, Izele van Blerk joined KWV’s premium Mentor's range cellar team in 2009 where her focus was and still is to maintain the high standard of producing leading, multi-regional wines from the best grapes South Africa has to offer.
We are very much looking forward to meeting Izele on Zoom and tasting a through 3 of her top shelf wines.
