Experience stellar wines with a creative edge
and great diversity from some of South Africa ’s
most lauded winemakers at the Nedbank Cape Winemakers Guild Auction Showcase in
Cape Town on Thursday, 22 August and Johannesburg on Thursday
29, August, when members of the Guild present their wines to go under the
hammer at this year’s Nedbank Cape Winemakers Guild Auction.
Benchmarking over 30 years of winemaking
excellence, the Guild comprises 45 winemakers who jointly represent the
pinnacle of South African wine achievement. Only wines crafted exclusively for
the Guild 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 lovers the opportunity to taste these rare and innovative 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 of young
people from wine farming communities and includes the Guild’s Protégé Programme,
a mentorship scheme for young, upcoming winemakers.
