L'Avenir
L’Avenir’s rich history dates back to the late 1600s when the estate was one of the very first sites identified for grape growing by the Cape’s earliest European settlers. The estate was renamed L’Avenir in 1992 by Mark Wiehe a Mauritian businessman who left a career of trading sugar in London to purchase the farm. This was the start of specialisation of this unique boutique winery. Wiehe appointed former pharmacist Francois Naude as winemaker and the estate swiftly gained recognition for its distinctive Pinotage and Chenin Blanc. In 2005 L’Avenir was acquired by the owner of the prestigious Chablis property Laroche Chablisien Michel Laroche.
Description
This elegant rosé exhibits a pale onion-skin color. The nose reveals delicate aromas of pomegranate, ruby grapefruit, strawberries, and raspberries. On the palate, it offers a crisp entry with bright fruit and acidity, leading to a smooth-textured mid-palate and concluding with a long, seductive finish.
Food Pairing
The GlenRosé pairs beautifully with delicate dishes such as salmon sashimi or grilled lobster, complementing the wine's elegance and acidity.
