The Bordeaux-headquartered DIVA has “carefully selected” wine portfolios from 14 “top” South African wine producers.
Marketed via website diva-southafrica.co.za, wines will be available to sixty export markets across five continents through DIVA’s international distribution network.
The operation will be based in the Franschhoek winelands of the Western Cape, and will be managed by wine professional Sharon Patterson, wine merchant Peter Clarke and Antonin Michel, general manager of the DIVA network.
