Winesource started as a headache - Brian Stern, entrepeneur-turned-farmer didn't know where to find anything he needed from one day to the next on his farming venture in Tulbagh. More than 12 years have passed and ventures have varied from veggies to herbs to free-range pigs (!) and now finally culminated in mollycoddling a few hectares of vines on the slopes of the Schaapenberg.
We started tossing ideas around about having a "one stop shop" for anything one might require on a typical Wineland farm. From building a house or a cellar to finding a vet to treat your Weimaraner and everything in between... But then we realised that much of this information would also be useful to visitors of our beautiful corner of the world. So the idea has been germinating until we have this eventual birth of the first version of Winesource.
Nothing gets sold on Winesource. We are only a portal to put suppliers of products or services in touch with possible customers. As such you won't find many graphics on Winesource - we want you to find WHAT you want as QUICKLY as possible. The site is available FREE to consumers and we will constantly strive to keep the costs to advertisers as low as possible.
Winesource is entirely independently owned and run. We will try to keep our opinions to ourselves and allow you free and unbiased access to whichever sector of the Winelands you desire.
Feel free to contact us with any questions or feedback - this site is there to serve YOU - the supplier, producer or visitor of the Winelands. As such we want to include all viable ideas you are willing to contribute.
