Stellenbosch Vineyards of South Africa Announces the Launch of its Wines at Five Spec’s Locations in Texas

Stellenbosch Vineyards is growing its national footprint and introducing their portfolio of South African wines to over 20 markets in the United States. “It is an exciting time for us to showcase our Welmoed and Versus brand of wines with Spec’s, the preeminent wine retailer in the great state of Texas,” stated Johann Diedericks, Brand and Business Development Manager S.A, Africa and the Americas. “It is great to be able to connect with American consumers in the region, who will find they can readily enjoy our wines with their traditional Southern cuisine preferences. Our Welmoed Chenin Blanc easily pairs with chicken wings while the Pinotage does justice to a hearty Texas barbecue.” 

The wines are available at the following locations: Houston, Dallas, San Antonio and Spring Valley.
