Translation missing: en.Tasting notes
The red wine Navitas from the Avondale Winery smells intensely of dark, stewed fruits like plum and Blackberry accompanied by spice notes like cinnamon, cloves and white pepper. There is also a subtle hint of earthiness and fine minerality, reminiscent of cool, rocky soils. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, soft and elegant, with silky integrated tannins and a fine, lively freshness, which gives the wine length and depth. The finish is spicy, fruit-forward and persistent.
Composition of this Cuvée
13% Grenache, 60% Syrah and 27% Mourvedre

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.
