The 2015 Cape Winemakers Guild Auction

With South Africa’s currency down more than 20% against the U.S. dollar in the past year, this year’s Cape Winemaker’s Guild auction in Stellenbosch offers international wine lovers a prime opportunity to snap up some scarce and distinctive South African wines from that country's most talented makers.

The 31st annual CWG auction will be held at the Spier estate on Saturday, October 3. The limited lots of wines on offer at the annual CWG event represent, in theory at least, the best of South African winemaking. This year, the number of auction lots as well as the total number of cases on offer have been reduced slightly, with the 46 Guild Members focusing more than ever before on quality and diversity over quantity.
