Meet Donovan Goliath, the Eastern Cape-born, Joburg-based creative exploring Cape Town with a fresh perspective.
This week, Donovan is swapping city streets for vineyard views as he heads to Stellenbosch to spend time with Vivian Kleynhans, founder and CEO of Seven Sisters Vineyards.
One of the first, and still one of the few, 100% POC-owned wine farms in Stellenbosch, Seven Sisters is a family-run winery built on a love of great wine, female empowerment, and the kind of hospitality that makes you feel like part of the family. Expect intimate tastings, paired menus, and stories poured just as generously as the wine.
As Donovan works his way through the range (strictly for research purposes, of course), Vivian shares the journey behind the label: her family roots, the vision that inspired Seven Sisters, and how determination helped turn a dream into one of South Africa’s most inspiring wine success stories.
Donovan’s Cape Town story continues. Follow Love Cape Town on socials to keep up with the journey.
