Cape Classics logo CAPE CLASSICS

Established in New York in 1991, Cape Classics is one of the pioneering South African wine specialists in the USA. The company, which has its head office in New York, represents leading South African brands including Kanonkop, Thelema and Buitenverwachting.

Cape Classics has also released Jam Jar Sweet Shiraz, made from grapes grown in the Paarl region. The wine has literally hit the American consumer’s sweet spot and has been unleashed on South African taste buds. Jam Jar is unapologetically accessible and populist. Its evocative packaging has a nostalgic “retro” feel with a red and white checked screw cap, inspired by traditional jam jar lids.

Cape Classics also offers university scholarships for people from communities historically excluded from holding senior positions in the wine industry.
