Whole-bunch fermented in concrete tanks, this chenin packs a luscious punch of flinty papaya and tropical fruit contoured by subtle tannin and crisp acidity.
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.
Tiny production single-vineyard wine from Adi Badenhorst's best Cinsault grapes, made with carbonic maceration. Lightly coloured but packs an intense concentration of fruit.
Tiny production single-vineyard wine from a coastal plot with sea breezes that add a refreshing salinity. One of the very few Palomino vineyards in South Africa!
Another stellar South African Chenin, made of fruit from 43-year-old vines that see limited sun, and aged on lees in neutral vessels. Floral on the nose, with a muted hint of beeswax among the orchard fruit, sage, and slate. Crisp and clean.
Fresh, saline and full of summer vibes. This natural Clairette Blanche is a focused, citrus-forward wine with notes of green and stone fruits. Crushable.
