Avontuur Estate Winemaker Jan van Rooyen is sharing some of his tips and insights with wine lovers at a series of tank and barrel tastings which take place at the Estate over the next few months.
On Thursday, 25 June from 18h00-20h00 an intimate group will be introduced to his award-winning Cabernet Francs in various stages of development, covering the life stages of this fascinating varietal in a unique way.
Saturday, 25 July sees the second of the tastings from 11h00-12h30, but Jan cannot yet confirm which varietal/s will be tasted as he needs to plan according to the development of the wines in situ. The last tasting will be in August, on a date to be confirmed.
All the tank and barrel tastings cost R100 pp and includes a welcome drink, the tasting, a glass of wine with a light supper/lunch and something sweet afterwards.
We plan to keep attendance numbers low so that everyone can interact personally with the winemaker and bookings are therefore essential at winery@avontuurestate.co.za or 021 855-3450.
