Tshedza Nemaname

Wine Steward at Sandton Sun and Towers

“I am skilled in providing outstanding customer service and organising memorable events that meet the highest standards.

My goal is to be part of the management team at Sandton Sun Hotels, preferably in Food & Beverage. I have obtained my Bachelor of Commerce in Tourism & Hospitality Management, and my next step is to pursue additional online training offered by the hotel.

Filled with unique and immersive experiences at various wineries it was both informative and educational. The Ernie Els Winery, with its spectacular views of Table Mountain and the Helderberg Mountains, was memorable. The guided tours allowed me to see the prestigious wine cellar, where I learned about the production of a range of wines, with a particular focus on Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine cellar features concrete tanks and maturation barrels, and I was intrigued by the history of how the award-winning range was named after South African golf legend Ernie Els (and not forgetting the trophies he has won). This was, for me, the most unique way to experience wine.”
