Wine entries for this year's Nederburg Auction, regarded as one of the world's five major wine auctions, are coming in rapidly. This prestigious annual event marks its 38th year on September 28th and 29th at Nederburg in Paarl, following Cape Wine 2012.
Organizers have invited all South African producers of wine to participate by submitting their rare, exclusive wines of outstanding quality for the selection tasting, scheduled to take place on 23rd and 24th February.
Nederburg Auction business manager Dalene Steyn says; "Our aim is to constantly find ways to improve the Nederburg Auction on all levels so that the quality of the wines sold continues to increase. From an administrative point of view, we have launched an online registration system for this year's auction in association with wine.co.za, the objective being to simplify the submission process for producers and enable us to maintain a database for future reference."
She adds; "From the entries received so far we are excited to see smaller quantities of really rare, exclusive wines being submitted, which supports our mandate to take the Auction to the next level and thus enhance the quality of the offering. Our team at the Nederburg Auction office is in high spirits in anticipation of what this year holds for the 38th Nederburg Auction of rare South African wines."
The closing date for submissions is Friday 3rd February 2012.
