Lanzerac<br />
In years gone by, as a tribute to SA’s own<br />
cultivar, Pinotage, and to Lanzerac, the<br />
first brand to market Pinotage wine on a<br />
commercial scale worldwide with its 1959<br />
Pinotage, the opening and closing items at<br />
the Nederburg Auction were traditionally<br />
Lanzerac Pinotages. Founded in 1692, the<br />
estate remains an award-winning cellar,<br />
and since 1958, a five-star, award-winning<br />
country hotel. With a long, proud history<br />
and as a true pioneer in the <strong>South</strong> <strong>Africa</strong>n<br />
wine industry, Lanzerac Wine Estate<br />
continues to build its legacy today. These<br />
legendary mature wines are from the<br />
Tabernacle Cellar of Distell.<br />
