Thembi Wines
Thembi & Co was founded in 2009 as a joint venture between Thembi & Boland Vineyard International.
In 2012 it bought back its shares from Boland and today sells a range of Thembi Fair Trade wines, mainly to the European market.
The name Thembi means hope, faith and belief - hope for a better life, belief that nothing is impossible.
Thembi Tobie sees herself as a pioneer and wine ambassador for wine culture and for women in the wine industry.
Thembi has already inspired other women with the income and an insatiable hunger to try new things to make a name for themselves in the industry.

But her vision goes beyond just promoting her label.
During the apartheid years in South Africa, black people were forbidden to drink wine, let alone work in the wine business. Her origins are one of the reasons Thembi entered the wine industry: to make a difference, no matter how small.
