Sneak a sip: 2019 Nedbank Cape Winemakers Guild Auction Showcase
· 2 min read
Some of South Africa’s top winemakers have been hard at work, creating wines for one reason only: To make it through the selection process that will see them showcased at a one-of-a-kind wine auction, The Nedbank Cape Winemakers Guild Auction.
Specially crafted by members of the Cape Winemakers Guild, these wines will only be available at the annual Auction. In an exclusive preview, wine enthusiasts will be given the opportunity to meet the Guild members and experience the auction wines, among others, at The Nedbank Cape Winemakers Guild Auction Showcases in Cape Town and Johannesburg.
Created in small volumes, exclusively for the Auction, the showcased wines have withstood the scrutiny of a panel of Guild members and have been put forward for auction due to their outstanding quality and distinction.
Whether you are starting your wine journey or are an experienced wine collector, you will be able to join both local and international buyers in acquiring these wines at the 2019 Nedbank Cape Winemakers Guild Auction, which will take place on Saturday 5 October 2019 at Spier Wine Estate, Stellenbosch.
