The App, a first of its kind in South Africa, reflects both Veritas and CTP’s commitment to finding new ways to benefit the wineries which enter this prestigious competition while simultaneously making these coveted award-winning wines available to all wine and brandy lovers throughout South Africa.
Specially developed for online wine sales, VinoVeritas by CTP has succeeded in simplifying access to award-winning Double Gold and Gold wines and brandies yearly when the results are announced. Consumers will have to wait until November 6, 2021 when this year’s awards will be announced at a special luncheon at the Polo Club at the Val de Vie Estate in Paarl.
To celebrate the success of the launch of VinoVeritas by CTP App a year ago, seven lucky wine and brandy lovers can be the recipients of a six-bottle case of award-winning wine each.
To qualify for one of these prizes, consumers can register from October 29 – November 4 on the App and one winner will be drawn every day.
VinoVeritas is the product of a partnership spanning over a decade between Veritas and CTP Packaging, through its divisions SA Litho Label Printers and CTP Cartons & Labels, and a ground-breaking collaboration with Getwine, whose streamlined distribution network ensures that these award-winning wines are logistically available to consumers countrywide.
Orders placed via VinoVeritas are automatically linked to Getwine’s E-commerce system. In turn, Getwine will finalise the transaction in respect of collection of payment and order fulfilment.
Developed with both wineries and wine lovers in mind, the App actively supports the sale of all the Double Gold and Gold award-winning wines while simultaneously providing wine lovers with a comprehensive guide to top wines available in South Africa.
“The strength and continuity of our partnership with Veritas can be attributed to a shared vision of excellence – Veritas in its celebration of excellent South African wine and us in our commitment to producing packaging of the highest quality for the South African wine industry. Over the decade during which CTP has remained an enthusiastic financial partner of the Veritas Awards, we’ve remained committed to finding new ways to benefit the wineries entering the competition. The launch of VinoVeritas by CTP, an industry first, bears testimony to this,” says Leon Witbooi, Director: CTP Packaging.
Leon’s sentiments are echoed by Christo Pienaar, SANWSA Chairperson, who had this to say, “This is a proud moment in the 31-year history of Veritas that we can launch such a unique app that will benefit both the South African wine industry and the consumer.”
