The Springfield wine club was created at the start of 2020, and while the global pandemic has thrown a spanner in the works when it comes to the lunches and events we had planned, we have still been putting together what we hope are exciting selections that have whetted your appetite and piqued your interest.
The Springfield Estate Wine Club is simple - R250 grants you access (and a hamper of home-made goodies straight from the farm - including our olives that we serve in the tasting room - if you know, you know), and from there you choose whether you would like to receive 6 (R800) or 12 (R1600) bottles every three months.
The boxes are curated by the Bruwer family themselves, and contain a seasonally appropriate mix of our wines - this could be a mix of our current releases, new vintages, older vintages from our archives, or even wines made especially for the wine club. The 12 bottle option would include two bottles of each.
Unfortunately the boxes are not customizable - if you really don't like a particular cultivar, see it as the perfect gift for the host of your next dinner party - it is already beautifully wrapped, after all! However, we always say one shouldn't knock something until you've tried it - so you never know, you could discover your new favourite by trying something new.
We know that seeing is believing, so while each box usually is a surprise, this is what you can expect for us if you sign up before the 24th of October:
New 2020 vintage releases - Life from Stone, Special Cuvee, Miss Lucy, Albarino
Our current vintage of our flagship red, Methode Ancienne Cabernet Sauvignon 2014
Something from the archives: the 2014 vintage of Whole Berry Cabernet Sauvignon (great to compare with the 2014 Methode Ancienne Cab!) Value of selection: R1052,00
Shipping on the actual wine club box is free (no hidden costs - however shipping still applies for additional wine ordered) and when the world returns to normal - or at least when we are permitted to gather again - we will resume our plans of winemakers lunches exclusively for club members, as well as discounted access to events taking place on the farm.
We look forward to seeing this club grow and evolve over the years. If this sounds like something you might enjoy - or even someone you know - have a look at our website Here.
Christmas is around the corner, after all, and we can't think of a better gift than the one that keeps giving.
On a separate note, we have decided to continue to absorb 50% of the shipping costs while there are still restrictions on the sale of alcohol. This means delivery nationwide starts at R60 for the first 12 bottles - shop the collection Here.
How to get our wine:
Our online shop is open and deliveries are permitted Mondays - Fridays. Please do bear in mind that delivery turnaround will take longer than usual due to the high order volumes across the industry - between 5 - 7 working days.
