You'd be forgiven for not knowing Chris Keet. He prefers it that way. Though, you'd be missing out. 

Chris Keet is a winemaker and viticulturist who has a long history in the wine industry, running a consultancy business (the man behind some of the big wines of the Cape) and making his own, one wine, the First Verse, since 2009.
