L'Avenir Wine Estate

One of the South African vineyard’s characteristics, as all Southern hemisphere’s viticultural countries, is to enjoy a very sunny climate thanks to a southern latitude of 32º, tempered by the cold waters coming up from Antarctica. The ocean’s temperature seldom exceeds 15ºC to 16ºC in the summer, which creates a strong thermal breeze and a cool climate near the sea with temperatures that increase significantly as one travels inland. Thus grape growing is concentrated on the coastal area that does not exceed 50km in depth. L’Avenir is an estate located in Stellen- bosch, a South African viticultural capital, with a charming small university town, approximately 15 km away from the ocean.
