The AfrAsia Bank Cape Wine Auction launched on Friday, 25 October at Le Quartier Francais in Franshhoek. At precisely the same time in eight of the world's most iconic wine-loving locations: Sao Paolo, Seattle, Zurich, Franschhoek, Mauritius, Hong Kong, Manila and Sydney corks popped to toast a dazzling international launch. All in the aid of Charity.
