GRAHAM BECK SECURES TOP KAHAL

“We toasted the town, the team, and our buyers with a couple bottles of Graham Beck Brut…”

“BIG SALE DIARIES” - Part 2

Uncle Tommy (Kahal out of Cousin Linda, half brother to Rebel King) did us proud yesterday, topping the first and second sessions with a heart-stopping, whopping R2.4million bid by Mike Bass for Graham Beck. Underbidders Mike de Kock and Markus Jooste carried him there, and our partners Mike and Marty Meredith, Mick and the team were ecstatic. In a fairly solid session we also sold, among others, Matara Garden (Solskjaer out of Garden Verse, half sister to Imbongi and Spring Garland) for R1.5million to Barry Irwin’s Team Valor.

We toasted the town, the team, and our buyers with a couple bottles of Graham Beck Brut – a fitting finish to yet another of those grand days at the office!

Well, I suppose it's OK to keep on the right side of your big customers. But I should have thought that the prices you got at the sale would have justified at least a magnum or even a jereboam of Dom Perignon.
