Wine Cellar Weekly: Bucket-list-worthy wines on auction, SA's best Pinots and a food & wine pairing

Ninety-nine lots of some of the finest wines and rarest vintages are going on auction in 2 days! Sunday's Strauss & Co Live Virtual Auction is set to excite collectors with sealed cases of Château Margaux and Lafite, five benchmark 1982s from Bordeaux, a bottle of 1962 Château d’Yquem and much more.

The excitement doesn't end there. We'll be hosting a food and wine pairing event on 26 May with a number of other compelling tastings in the pipelines. We have limited quantities of Hannes Storm's terroir-expressive wines – the best Pinots in SA right now. We also have a modern Chardonnay from Capensis and we've just added more sought-after wines to our vintage list.

Capensis, Silene Chardonnay 2018
R 285 per bottle

The new vintage of the Capensis Silene Chardonnay shows the beautiful complexity of its two vineyards: Fijnbosch and Nooitgedacht. An 'archetypal modern Chardonnay,' says Christian Eedes of Winemag. Beautifully proportioned and fine with bright acidity drawing out to the finish.’ – Platter’s Guide, 93/100

Storm, Pinot Noirs 2019
R 610 per bottle

Local critic, Christian Eedes, raves about the new Storm releases, scoring the Pinot Noirs 95 points across the board. 'They are quite simply enthralling,' writes Christian, and while yields were low, 'fruit concentration is outstanding,' he continues. The 94-point Chardonnays are both wonderfully crafted. Note, all Hannes Storm's small-batch wines are in high demand.
