FNB renews wine competition sponsorship
The Sauvignon Blanc Top 10 competition, facilitated by the Sauvignon Blanc Interest Group of South Africa (SBIG) to promote innovation excellence and recognise those making wines of distinction, will continue to be supported by FNB for a further three years.
"We are proud to renew the sponsorship of the competition. The bank's association with this competition demonstrates our commitment to supporting and showcasing the depth of talent in South Africa's wine industry," said Stephan Claassen, FNB provincial head of the Cape.
Thys Louw from the Sauvignon Blanc Interest Group of South Africa adds, "We are delighted to continue our partnership because our joint commitment has enabled the status of the competition to grow significantly over the years. We look forward to three more years of mutually beneficial collaboration and the roll-out of a series of other events as part of the sponsorship."
