The five lucky top bidders will walk away with 96 bottles of wine. The Top bidder receives the original printing plate. This Wine is once off, never to be repeated by these legendary Winemakers.

In this extraordinary cooperative venture, two highly acclaimed winemakers – Emul Ross of Hamilton Russell Vineyards and Eben Sadie of The Sadie Family Wines – each offer their own single barrel’s worth of 2018 Pinotage from the Ashbourne farm in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley.

To ensure that the terroir was the same for the two wines, Emul and Eben walked the vineyards together to agree on the same top parcel from which to harvest their barrel’s worth of grapes. These grapes were harvested at the same time – very early on the morning of February 26th. The only difference in the resulting wines was intended to be the winemaking approach, stylistic aims and aesthetic philosophy of the two accomplished winemakers. The human touch.
