Over the last 12 years I have had Therese help me with wine selections and private VIP tours to some of the most amazing and exclusive wineries in South Africa and Napa Valley. The tastings/tours are always unique with much attention to detail. I also have collaborated with her on several charity events to Benefit The African Wildlife Foundation. The events were well planned and very successful. She will create wine experiences of a lifetime for you and your friends & family.
