Translation missing: en.Tasting Notes
The The West Peak Cabernet Sauvignon from Avontuur is a powerful, profound red wine with plenty of character. The nose reveals intense aromas of black currants, dark cherries and blueberries, complemented by fresh red berries and lively acidity that lends the wine freshness and structure. The palate offers dense, velvety fruit, accompanied by earthy mulberry notes and a fine, chalky tannin structure. Complex nuances of cedarwood, graphite, cigar box and dark Chocolate bring depth and elegance. On the finish, aromas of espresso and spicy wood emerge, combining with the ripe fruit to create a long, harmonious finale. An impressive Cabernet with great ageing potential and a multifaceted personality.

Grape Variety
Chenin Blanc is a widely cultivated, old white wine grape variety that has been grown in France (in Anjou – Touraine) since the 9th century. Compared to other white wine grape varieties, this variety is very productive. This leads to a very high quality of the white wine when reduced on the vine.
In South Africa, Chenin Blanc is the most widely grown white wine grape variety. The reason for this is primarily the very high diversity. For example, there are "wild-growing" vines (so-called Bush Vines) that are usually not irrigated. For this reason, the vines penetrate very deep into the ground with their roots to reach water. These Chenin Blancs therefore have a stronger depth and complexity.
The grape variety can also be aged very fresh and fruity in stainless steel tanks, developing into a very nice summer wine. Through the Aged in oak barrels, one obtains very complex and full-bodied white wines. The aromas of Chenin Blanc wines range from peach, apricot, and tropical fruits to honey and melon.
