PRE-SALE TASTING
Before every Winefields auction there is always a pre-sale tasting. This usually starts around 11:30 am and continues up to the start of the auction. You can examine all the wines to be auctioned and our wine experts will be happy to advise you. The condition of every wine is described in the catalogue, or otherwise described by the auctioneer during the auction itself.


BIDDING DURING THE AUCTION
The auctions start at 12 pm on Sunday or Saturday afternoons. If you are present and would like to bid, you can register and pick up a bidding number at the desk. If you would like to bid for a particular item during the auction you hold your paddle up so your number can be seen clearly by the auction master. Winefield’s auctions per lot: the lot goes to the highest bidder.


ABSENTEE BIDS
Clients who are not able to attend the auction may leave a sealed bid with us. The auction master will try to get the best possible price for you during the auction.


TELEPHONE BIDS
Clients who are not able to attend the auction but would like to bid by phone will be assisted by one of our staff who will bid for you to get the best possible price. Winefield’s is not responsible for any misunderstandings or mistakes made during telephone bids.
