Product information "L'Avenir Single Block Pinotage 2018"
The L'Avenir Single Block Pinotage pampers with an invitingly fresh and complex aroma of fragrant violets, potpourri, dried cranberry and dark chocolate. The palate is caressed by lively and lush fruit nuances of fresh cherries and delicately sweet spices as well as well-integrated oak wood tones. Its full-bodied structure and its fine and soft tannins complete this wonderful pleasure experience and end in a long and pleasantly soft finish.

The grapes for this highly endowed Pinotage matured for 8 days at a regulated 32°C partly in stainless steel tanks and partly in new oak barrels. After completion of the alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in French barriques, the wine matured for 18 months in first and second class French oak barrels and in stainless steel tanks.
