La Bri Affinity

La Bri's cuvée The Affinity is more than the sum of its parts: The wine is only produced at all if the individual grape varieties come together in perfect harmony - which is why entire vintages (2018 and 2019) were deliberately omitted. The result: a carefully composed, richly structured Bordeaux blend that reflects South African winemaking at the highest level.

Cabernet Sauvignon dominates in this powerful yet polished blend, complemented by Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. The nose reveals intense aromas of ripe berries and fine mocha, while the palate is velvety smooth with fine-grained tannins and a fresh, supporting acid structure. A red wine of depth, complexity and remarkable balance.

The four grape varieties were vinified separately and then matured for 18 months in French barriques, 10% of which were new. Only then were the barrels selected and the final cuvée made - a demanding, quality-oriented process that gives the wine its balance and finesse.

Each La Bri cuvée is associated with a characteristic flower. In the Affinity Blend, the Geissorhiza radians - also known as the "wine calyx" - adorns the label. The deep blue flower with a red core symbolizes the depth, concentration and harmony of this exceptional wine.

Perfect with braised beef, lamb chops, grilled vegetables or mature hard cheese. This blend is also an elegant accompaniment to game dishes with a fruity sauce.

Jahrhundert, verbindet La Bri heute reiche Tradition mit modernem Weinhandwerk. Der Name „La Bri“ stammt vom französischen Wort „l’abri“, was „Zuflucht“ bedeutet – eine Anspielung auf die hugenottische Geschichte der Region.

La Bri steht für charaktervolle, handgefertigte Weine mit unverwechselbarem Ausdruck des Terroirs. Die Reben gedeihen auf sonnenverwöhnten Hanglagen mit fruchtbaren, gut drainierten Böden – ideale Bedingungen für Rebsorten wie Shiraz, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon sowie Chenin Blanc und Chardonnay. Jede Flasche erzählt von Sorgfalt, Präzision und dem Streben nach Balance und Eleganz.

Ein besonderes Merkmal: Jede Weinsorte ziert ein eigenes botanisches Motiv – eine Hommage an die einzigartige Flora des Kap-Weinlands. La Bri ist nicht nur ein Weingut, sondern ein Ort für Genießer, Kunstliebhaber und Ruhesuchende. Mit limitierter Produktion, viel Handarbeit und einer klaren Qualitätsphilosophie zählt La Bri zu den versteckten Juwelen Südafrikas.
