Avontuur Estate
NEW LABELS INTRODUCED FOR ESTATE RANGE: After more than a decade of sporting the well known cream and gold labels, the Estate range is sporting a new classic look which will bring some of our winery brand characteristics to the fore.

Led by Michael and Philip Taberer, the design team at “The Mark Studio” were given the brief earlier this year to increase the brand exposure and modernise and clean up the labels.

“We’ve done a lot of research and it’s amazing how much work needs to be done to create clear communication and simplicity. I feel we’ve accomplished a great look, which highlights our brand and quality,” says Michael.

“The distinctive diamond shape will be immediately identifiable as ours and will stand out in trade,”added Philip.

OPENING TIMES
Avontuur Estate is open daily throughout the festive season, except on Christmas Day, the 25th of December and New Year’s Day, the 1st of January. On the public holidays ie the 16th, the 26th and the 27th as well as the 2nd of January, we would love to see you for a meal or a tasting. We look forward to hosting you.

2017 YEARLING SALES KICK OFF IN CAPE TOWN
With the programme for next year’s Yearling Sales now out, the exclusive Cape Premier Yearling Sale at the CTICC on 21 and 22 January, takes precedent as the year winds down. Avontuur has 9 Yearlings on Sale, with 4 Fillies and 5 Colts making up the group. Six Var’s dominate, but with last Friday’s decisive win by the first SA-bred Oratorio on SA soil, we expect much interest in the Oratorio’s too this year.

TASTING ROOM GIFT IDEAS
The Tasting Room is full of the spirit of the festive season with décor reflecting the mood and four gift ideas on sale, which should solve your gifting problems easily. For Him, we have a braai and red wine gift set and For Her a bubbly set, both @ R300. For Uncle Jim who loves lots of wine around the braai, grab one of our R44 Rouge Magnums and 2 FREE branded glasses at only R150 and if you’re the more adventurous type, try our Sweet Treats tasting at home with our DIY kit for only R500.

SPOIL YOURSELF IN OUR TASTING ROOM
The very popular Sweet Treat pairing is on throughout the summer season @ R60 pp. Combine it with a self-guided Farm Walk @ R70 pp. Ask about our platters in the tasting room, and enjoy a few nibbles whilst tasting.
