The bursaries provide students with financial support during their final year of study. Once they have graduated, these aspiring winemakers will be able to apply for a possible three-year internship with the Cape Winemakers Guild Protégé Programme, which offers them the opportunity to learn from, and work alongside some of the country's best winemakers who are members of the Guild.
The Cape Winemakers Guild Protégé Programme was launched in 2006 under the auspices of the Nedbank Cape Winemakers Guild Development Trust with the goal of bringing about transformation in the wine industry by cultivating, nurturing and empowering promising individuals to become winemakers of excellence.
This is the third year that the Guild, with the assistance of AGRI-Seta, has awarded these study bursaries which require outstanding marks and an excellent aptitude for winemaking.
