WaterAid
LOTS 1 TO 46
The following lots are offered on behalf of Decanter Magazine and are drawn from the sample bottles submitted to their 2008 World Wine Awards. The proceeds will be donated in full to benefit the international charity, WaterAid, who are dedicated to the provision of domestic water, sanitation and hygiene education across Africa and Asia. Their work is fundamental; over a billion people do not have access to safe water in these areas.

Vintages range mainly from 2002-2006. All are drawn from the 'over GBP 10' category of the 2008 Decanter World Wine Awards (full results of which are available at www.decanter.com).
