The annual Nederburg Auction is an event to behold; Vintage wines from various years on display and up for grabs! On Friday, 15 and Saturday, 16 September 2017, Nederburg in Paarl is presenting their annual vino auction. Bring those paddles and get ready to fight it out for some sensational wine.
Typical wine auctions seldom offer guests the chance to taste the wines before they bid on them, but where is the fun in that? At this year’s auction, Nederburg have elected to let their guests sample the wine before they part ways with their cash. The tastings will be hosted by the producers themselves, and there is no better way to learn about wine than from the winemakers directly. Unfortunately this does not apply to the limited reserve wines, which means a select number of wines will not be available for tasting as there is limited stock of these wines.

Here is a little peek at some of the wine estates that will be putting their wines up for auction on Friday, 15 and Saturday, 16 September 2017:
You can view the full list on the auction website Nederburgauction.co.za.
This auction is an opportunity for wine lovers, enthusiasts, appreciators and collectors to get their hands on some of the region's rarest and finest wines. You will also come across various businesses, all vying for the best wines to stock at their hotels, restaurants and bars across the country. While we all love a good vino, the price of the tickets for this event suggests that this auction is for serious bidders only. However,if you fancy a wine experience of some other kind you can have a look at our pick of wine tastings.

TICKETS TO THE 2017 NEDERBURG WINE AUCTION IN PAARL THIS SEPTEMBER
Tickets can be booked online at the Nederburg Wine Auction website Nederburgauction.co.za. Tickets cost R1000/p, and must be paid before the event. PLEASE NOTE: Unfortunately, the registration process is now closed.
If you have any question or queries, please contact the organisers directly on +27 (0)21 809 7740 or you can drop them an email via JLSmith@distell.co.za.
