We are building the Mapi Valley brand, and we dream to make it the most progressive wine and spirits brand ever. We create high quality limited series of wines and spirits, which financially empower a new generation of sommeliers and chefs in South Africa (and later also in many other places in the world). To do so we collaborate with progressive producers who reserve and label a certain amount of their wines for Mapi Valley.

Rising stars in wine and gastronomy collaborate with us, choosing wines and spirits for each limited edition. We dedicate every range to them, showcasing their image on the label and telling their story. We wish to inspire a larger public to also chase their dream and build a great life.

We've been aiming to create a project with a strong social element, and our wine brand is the perfect tool for that. Part of the profit from the sales will be invested in a new generation of sommeliers and chefs, providing them with more opportunities in education and gaining experience.
