Vanessa - my USA trip
With this, my very FIRST blog cast, I’m excited to announce that I’m busy planning a marketing trip to America. I leave Cape Town on the 6th Sept,  and after a long haul flight from JHB – DC and then a trans-America flight (window seat so that I can see all the State of America ) I get to San Francisco on the 6th Sept -  Time zones are mind bloggling!  My main destination is the WINESONG auction in Mendocino County.   I have packaged a Cape winelands tour and safari which will be on the auction.  I’m also going to be representing cousin Mike Ratcliffe’s Warwick Wines.
I would really appreciate it if anyone could put me in touch with folks in the Mendocino, Napa, San Francisco areas who might be interested in meeting me…
Professionals in the wine industry  ie: a winery owner / distributor /wine club co-ordinator / restauranteur who is interested in SA wines and would like to visit the Cape winelands or perhaps envisages bringing a group of people on a wine and gourmet trip to South Africa.   Private individuals and collectors who like to incorporate excellent food and wine when they travel.    I’m also going to be promoting the fact that we facilitate golf tours, honeymoons, family safaris etc. Another trend we are seeing that some of you will relate to is multi-generational family travel (family reunions!)   We can also handle small corporate incentive groups.  Â
South Africa has so much to offer!
