Online Wine Auction
A rare collection of vintage wines from some of the finest South African, French, German and Italian cellars is available for purchase at the Steenberg Vinoteque Wine Auction, a five week long online auction starting on 10 October 2018.

We are unlocking the vault of our restaurant vinoteques and releasing these fine collectors’ wines to the highest bidder to make room for more wines originating from Constantia. Wine lovers will be able to cherry pick older vintages from top producers such as Raats, Vondeling, Boekenhoutskloof, Kaapzicht, Vilafonte, Mulderbosch, Le Riche, Tokara, Mullineux and Jordan, to name a few. The oldest vintage on offer is a 2003 Morgenster Reserve Red.

A pre-auction tasting of a selection of the online auction wines will be held at Catharina’s Restaurant at Steenberg from 16h00 to 19h00 on Wednesday, 10 October.
