About Sybil and Come wine with us

Come wine with us is the brainchild of chef, stylist, event coordinator & wine expert, Sybil Doms.

Sybil's love for everything food related is evident in the way she tackles every unique and exciting challenge that comes her way.   Her wealth of experience within the food & wine industries also makes her stand out as someone who will ensure that her clients are getting only the best service, meticulously carried out according to the highest standards.

After growing up in the heart of the Robertson Winelands, Sybil studied at the Institute of Culinary Arts in the Banhoek Valley.  During her studies she frequented the kitchens of some of the most famous chefs in South Africa, an experience which solidified her passion for great food.  After getting the opportunity to travel abroad to sample some of the world's most famous continental wines, she returned to South Africa to join the world of food and wine media.  She applied her expertise as a freelance food stylist for several top SA publications including Rooi Rose, Fair Lady Bride, Taste & Real Simple while also coordinating food and wine pairings for renowned estates such as L'Ormarins, Rupert and Rothschild, Graham Beck and De Wetshof Wine.

Her career highlights include being awarded the prestigious Sommelier Scholarship at Waddesdon Manor in the UK, attaining a level 2 distinction at The Wine and Spirits Education trust, and being selected as the personal chef to the late Pietro Ferrero – the famous Ferrero Rocher heir.

Today Sybil aims to bring together all her experience as a one stop culinary shop or sorts.  Come wine with us and Sophisticated Chef is all about creating memorable food experiences, imparting invaluable food & wine knowledge, and providing tailor-made solutions to each and every client's unique culinary needs.
