Meet the change makers shaking up the WineTech industry 👇 Our Founders Eric Matkovich and Kara Matkovich were featured in WineLand Media this month, sharing a bit about their exciting journey with Johannes Richter 🥂 Together, they started Cape Ardor 16 years ago from a small warehouse in San Francisco. They’ve since grown it into what is arguably one of the largest portfolios of new-world fine wines available in the US today, bringing you exceptional wines from premium boutique wineries in South African, New Zealand, Australia, France and Italy. And they didn't stop there - CellarX (Pty) Ltd was established at the intersection between wine and technology to help wineries skyrocket their DTC sales and increase CLV. Thanks Johannes Richter and WineLand Media!

One of our absolute favorites - a masterpiece Waterford Estate 🍷
The Jem, a wine steeped in tradition, forging a path of authenticity in its portrayal of South Africa. Regardless of the vintage, The Jem is a wine that will impress all and tells the story of this incredible property Waterford Estate finds itself on. Rich and complex, aromatic and balanced, the Jem blend will keep you sipping at your glass trying to decipher what it is that makes this wine so incredible. From the classic Cabernet Sauvignon to the intriguing character of Mediterranean varietals, all rounded off with the strength of Bordeaux varietals, the Jem blend is exquisite in nature and alluring in complexity. Keep an eye on our social media channels as we eagerly await the release of the 2017 vintage of The Jem. ____________ #flagshipwine #stellenboschwineroute #southafricanfinewine
