Cobie van Oort
Winemaker Jan van Rooyen is looking forward to sharing his
experience and the thinking behind each wine’s production, with a select group of 20 wine lovers on a
regular basis.
The first tasting is on Thursday, 8 August at 18h30-20h00
and the theme is
“Burgundian Grapes”. Tasters will be
introduced to various blends, single varietals and a bubbly, all made from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Jan is planning to bring in some “sold-outs”
as well as wines not yet released to present an overall view of the Estate’s
award-winning wines, all based around this theme.
Bookings are essential with Nadia or Natalie in the tasting
room at winery@avontuurestate.co.za
or +27 21 855-3450. The cost is R75 pp
which includes 6 wines and a light supper with coffee and something sweet
afterwards.
The wines will be for sale on the night and we hope to make
lots of friends for Avontuur with our new tastings, which are aimed to be informative
without being too formal.
