Gearing up for the 30th Nedbank Cape Winemakers Guild
Auction to be held in Stellenbosch on 4 October, these Showcases give wine
lovers the opportunity to taste the selection of rare and sought after wines to
go under the hammer this year.
Benchmarking over 30 years of winemaking excellence with
wines of remarkable lineage and enduring quality, the Guild comprises 45
winemakers who jointly represent the pinnacle of South African wine
achievement. Only wines crafted exclusively for the Guild auction by these
leading winemakers are sold at the annual auction which is open to the general
public, wine collectors as well as the liquor and restaurant trade.
The Showcases in Cape Town and Johannesburg afford wine
enthusiasts the opportunity to taste these small volume, cutting edge auction
wines as well as other acclaimed flagship wines of Guild members in an
interactive, walk-around tasting hosted by the winemakers themselves.
Showcase-goers will also have the opportunity to bid on
rare signed bottles from previous Guild auctions during the Silent Auction in
aid of the Nedbank CWG Development Trust. Founded in 1999, the Development
Trust assists with education, training and empowerment within the wine industry
and includes the Guild’s Protégé Programme, a mentorship scheme for young,
upcoming winemakers.
