Jeremy and Emma Borg founded Painted Wolf Wines to create unique wines from a small number of growers in
some of South Africa’s prime sites, including Paarl, Swartland and Stellenbosch - low-yielding areas which are
mostly unirrigated and farmed organically or with minimal organic outputs. They called their company Painted
Wolf, after the endangered African Wild Dog, and the Painted Wolf ‘pack’ is their community of talented
individuals who bring the best available grapes, technical and practical skills to them, crafting a range of
delicious, authentic satisfying wines.

Five percent of Painted Wolf profits from UK sales are donated to Tusk Trust, which not only funds projects to
protect wildlife, particularly endangered species, but also helps to alleviate poverty through sustainable
development and education amongst rural communities who live alongside wildlife.
