Papegaai is a co-fermented blend of all the grapes on Badenhorst's Kalmoesfontein, including Cinsault, Chenin Blanc, Palomino, and Syrah, sourced from 23 distinct vineyards. Light and easy-drinking, with raspberry fruit flavours and herbaceousness in the finish.

GSM named after the large clay vessels used by the Georgians since long before recorded history.  Serve slightly chilled.

"Complex and attractive bouquet of oriental spices with pronounced violet and white pepper flavours. It has lovely perfumed red fruit aromatics. A well-balanced wine with spicy overtones and a lingering finish. Very classic style with unmistakable Rhone flavours. Good to drink now, but will develop and mature over the next 10 years."

Light bodied, herbaceous and savoury. An excellent introduction to an interesting and unfamiliar grape!
