SAWi announced the release of our Ambassadors wine collection and gift boxes today, 13 December 2011. These 24 wines represent the best of South African Wines, with 14 wines having scored a perfect 100 points on the SAWi Index and the rest made up from a selection from top SAWi 96+ Club laureates.

SAWi considers the combined preferences of a diverse group of wine judges from various wine competitions over several vintage years and present it in wine maturation categories with a point's format score out of a 100, with different weights ascribed to wine competitions and where recognition is also given to the consistency of results and accolades bestowed on a wine.
