turning new ideas into reality
online tasting group
A monthly meeting of Western Cape Wine-Minds via Zoom.
International Wine tasting samples are prepared with a Coravin and labelled numerically to create a perfect blind tasting experience. Samples and developed tasting sheets are dispatched via courier to tasters in the Western Cape.
Tasting packs - 8 x 50ml samples.
off-line food and wine pairing events
Join me on my Cape Wine Master Education Journey.
As always, the event starts with a Champagne Sabrage. Learn about the White and Red noble varietals with the use of developed tasting sheets. As a lover of all the finer things in life - only Premier and Grand Cru examples will be presented. Developed for groups of 8.
fmcg innovation and creation specialist
Creativity is typically centered around original thought and knowledge, which unleashes potential and is an integral part of idea generation. Innovation, on the other hand, is used to turn the creative idea that you come up with into a viable solution.
Innovation is the process of turning a new concept into commercial success or widespread use. Invention is the creation of a new idea or concept.

Categorised as an innovative and commercially minded thinker. Experienced in the development of food products, packaging & eateries (RTE, RTD, QSR, HMR & FMCG), strategies and the management of diverse resources and complex processes in order to execute strategies. Ideation, creation, commercialisation, implementation & evaluation are just a few of the steps involved in the development process.
global food and drink trend analysis
