Wine information:
L’Avenir is an estate located in Stellenbosch, a South African viticultural capital, with a charming small university town, approximately 15 km away from the ocean. Such location is marked by a moderately warm climate and cool nights, which is very favourable for grape growing. Pinotage is South Africa’s emblematic grape variety, the country’s signature wine. Pinotage is a cross between Pinot Noir and Cinsault, they are wines of impressive stature and l’Avenir is always amongst the leaders for this varietal. 100% Pinotage sourced from The fertile, mountainous region of the Breede River Valley, approximately 90km from Cape Town. A fruit-filled, succulent and lighter-styled red wine ideal for drinking without further maturation. The floral, Pinot noir component of this varietal is expressed very delicately without detracting from the unique South-African nature of this fascinating cultivar, and the palate is filled with the notes of ripe red cherries and raspberry.
