Winemaker Jonathan Grieve makes wines using natural ecosystems. The water from the Drakenstein mountain waterfalls flows down over the vineyards and the ancient riverbed, around and over which the winery and cellars are built. In the hot summer sun, this water provides natural cooling for the grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe word Anima refers to soul and vital life force. Avondale believes that the soul breathes life into all things. This wine, at least, was made with heart and soul. Moreover, this Anima wine contains many minerals that have \"animated\" the taste of the wine.

Yields are deliberately kept low (through so-called green harvesting) to achieve a high concentration in the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes were hand-picked. The whole bunches were naturally fermented in 500-liter wooden barrels. No factory yeasts were added to facilitate this process. 15-20% of the harvest was fermented in stone amphorae. Afterwards, the wine aged on its lees for a year with regular stirring. The wine is ready to drink approximately 4 years after harvest and can be enjoyed up to 10 years after harvest, provided it is stored under the correct conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Avondale","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58944351895877,"sku":"C36745","price":24.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1078\/1183\/2133\/files\/c34c4de74ab0a35a44e74ed938a4664ff46e2100.jpg?v=1787299643"},{"product_id":"bio-avondale-jonty-s-ducks-pekin-white","title":"BIO Avondale Jonty's Ducks Pekin White","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting note BIO Avondale Jonty's Ducks Pekin White\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, this wine shines with a light golden yellow color with a delicate green hue.
