Nederburg Auction 2010
A premier event on Cape Town's wine calendar, the Nederburg Auction serves to showcase the spectrum of award-winning wines and rare Cape finds created by the country's most talented winemakers.

Since its beginnings in 1975 with the 'famous five' founding participants; Delheim, Groot Constantia, Overgaauw, Simonsig and of course Nederburg, and an offering of just 15 wines, the Auction has evolved into an international event where major local and overseas wine buyers bid for a stringently selected range of the finest wines created by South Africa's most talented winemakers.

Last year marked the 35th year of this prestigious event, which coincided with the celebration of 350 years of South African winemaking, and overall income fetched just over R4 million.
