Brammer, welcomed senior diplomatic representatives of African Embassies and an Honorary Consulate to taste some excellent, upcoming wines created by young South African BEE wine makers. The professional wine seminar was conducted by architect Gisela Schneidewind who is also owner of Stein+Wein. This company passionately promotes South African wines through tastings and events. 

Ms Schneidewind presented nine selected wines by Howard BooysenSeven Sisters / African RootsCarmen Stevens of Armani VineyardsNtsiki Biyela of Stellekaya WineryM'Hudi Wines and The Township Winery and intriguing background stories about the winemakers.
