Avontuur Estate is participating in the 2014 Stellenbosch Wine Festival which takes place from Friday, 24 January to Sunday, 2 February 2014 in and around this scenic town in the Boland.
Amongst other activities the winery and thoroughbred stud farm is offering the opportunity for only 20 visitors per day to visit the stables for a “personal” meeting with the Estate’s two top-rated stallions VAR and Oratorio and an info session led by GM Pippa Mickleburgh, where equine lovers can ask questions to their heart’s content, after which a winery experience and light lunch will follow.
Guests will be asked to arrive at 11h00 on either Wed, 29/1 or Thu, 30/1 (pre-bookings and payment essential!), ready for a 15 minute walk to the stables where Pippa and her team will be waiting.
After a photo opportunity or two with the award-winnning sires, and a Q & A session, guests will wander back to the winery for a Tease your Taste Buds experience which will be presented by the winery team. Then a light lunch will be served with a glass of wine per person.
Guests are advised to wear walking/comfy shoes, and be prepared for a warm day with a hat, sunscreen and water.
Bookings: The cost is R250 pp, and you can book your spot with the tasting room at winery@avontuurestate.co.za, or with Moerieda at info@avontuurestate.co.za or by contacting us at 021 855-3450
