CWA2018 Lot Donations

— Deadline 30th September 2017 —

Planning is going full speed and today we start pulling together the resources of an entire industry to compile the 35 auction lots for 2018. We are looking for rare wine collections, decadent experiences, luxurious hideaways, extreme adventures, vintage cars, large format bottles, safari experiences, celebrity access and combinations of the above that will contribute towards a money-cant-buy experience.

— We need your help —

Reach out to your contacts. Someone in your circle of influence owns a luxurious holiday home, a yacht, a safari lodge, a jet or, perhaps, a space ship to partner with your rare wine. How can these be intelligently packaged together? We are raising money to support education in the South African wine lands, so don’t be scared or intimidated. Ask for something. Discuss your crazy ideas. Be creative. The time to act is now.

Submissions close at the end of September and our catalog going to print at the end of October 2017. Please don’t delay. Reach out now and make sure that your winery is part of #CWA2018. We can’t do this without you.
