Wine Cellar joined other media and VIPs at the Cape Town International Convention Centre for this year’s tasting of wines entered into the Cape Wine Makers’ Guild Auction. We chatted to wine makers, buyers and writers, and came across a somewhat controversial wine from Adi Badenhorst.

The Auction will be held on Saturday the 6th of October at the Spier Conference Centre. Wine Cellar will be there and is more than happy to bid on your behalf!

We have also selected our top 10 wines from all the Wine Cellar tasters (David, Roland, Janine, Tessa and Debi).
