    TIMESTAMPS 01:25 South African wine has a marketing challenge. 03:00 What does success look like for South African wine? 04:20 We make a lot of great wine, but in small volumes. 05:05 In order to be successful you need to be sustainable. 07:00 At the moment South Africa’s top wines get consumed locally. 08:00 We need wine grape farmers to be rewarded for quality. 09:55 Quality has improved immensely in the last 12 years. 13:00 Specialisation of farming and wine by design. 14:25 Art versus business pragmatism in wine. 18:25 Are we under investing in sales and marketing in SA wine? 20:35 We are lacking focus in sales and marketing. 21:00 Do business where you want to visit, with people you like, and go often. 22:00 Building depth rather than breadth. Focus. 26:20 As a country SA is becoming more specialised and focused. 28:30 Taking the reins at Warwick and building scale. 32:20 Golden threads in Mike’s brand building philosophy. 35:00 Creating stories around brands. 42:00 Who are you and what do you stand for as a brand? 44:30 Building authentic South Africa luxury wine brands at scale. 48:30 We need to have more confidence in our wines as a country. 49:30 Recognition of SA wines has never been higher. 52:30 What does success look like in the future for SA wine?
