Shante Hutton
Wine News Editor
|
|
Hailing from the British Isles and sporting a wicked sense of humour and witty writing style, Shante takes her place as our kick-ass News editor. Once a tea drinker, she's now rather partial to a buttery Chardonnay; more often than not you can find her pouring over food and wine recipes

Garth Hapgood-Strickland
Senior Web Developer & Web Designer
|
|
Dark, daring and damn efficient (don't let the double-barrel surname fool you), Garth is Kevin's programming wingman and in charge of what we call, 'the front-end', i.e. the look and feel of the WINE.CO.ZA portal. Garth works his magic in minutes - having been a magician in a former life. Houdini ain't got nothing on this lothario of graphic wizardry.
