By naming the wine Legal Eagle, we honour one of the great race horses bred at Avontuur Estate, a double Horse of the Year recipient. Cabernet Franc is one of the classic Bordeaux varieties grown at Avontuur Estate and we share the limelight with our champion thoroughbred in this wine.” Winemaker, Jan van Rooyen
