October 3rd, 2020: The 36th Nedbank Cape Winemakers Guild Auction hosted by Bonhams made history today with record average prices per case being achieved across the board. An unprecedented and challenging year called for an innovative and charitable approach that resulted in two separate and distinctive online auctions raising a staggering total of R5.15 million.
The Cape Winemakers Guild was born from a commitment to excellence that can only exist on its communities' pillars and with a significant focus on social responsibility. It was a clear-cut direction in the aftermath of COVID 19 to put together an initiative from which the broader wine community can benefit.
In addition to the Guild's annual Auction, which will be hosted live and online by the international auction house Bonhams on 3 October this year, the Guild will be holding a one-of-a-kind online Vinotheque Auction of past CWG Auction greats.
We are counting the days to the very first live and online 2020 Cape Winemakers Guild Auction. It gives us great pleasure to announce this year's diverse offering from different regions boasting exciting styles for discerning collectors. In less than two months, the 2020 Nedbank CWG Auction hosted by Bonhams will be held live and online on Saturday, 3 October 2020, from 12:00 (London time).
Dit is amper tyd vir die jaarlikse Kaapse Wynmakersgilde-veiling en die seleksie van wyne is pas bekendgemaak. Wynversamelaars sal die geleentheid hê om op ‘n groot verskeidenheid van wyne te bie wat verskeie streke en uiteenlopende style insluit. Oor minder as twee maande word die 2020 Nedbank KWG-veiling op Saterdag 3 October 2020, vanaf 12:00-Londentyd, vir die eerste keer lewendig en aanlyn deur die Bonhams-veilingshuis aangebied.
Die Nedbank Kaapse Wynmakersgilde-veiling sal vanjaar sy wynjuwele vir die eerste keer aanlyn onder die hamer bring. Daar wag vanjaar ook iets nuut op die kaarte met ‘n tweede veiling wat die groot dag vooruit sal loop. Wynentoesiaste en versamelaars sal die geleentheid hê om op die huidige versameling veilingswyne te bie, maar vanjaar ook die rare geleentheid kry om ouer wyne uit die lede se private vinoteke te bekom.
The Nedbank Cape Winemakers Guild Auction goes live and online this year, offering wine enthusiasts and collectors the opportunity to bid on current CWG Auction Wines and exceedingly rare previous CWG Auction gems from members’ personal vinotheques.
