BADENHORST PAPEGAAI 2021

Style: Savoury Detailed

AA Badenhorst Family Wines are grown, made and matured on Kalmoesfontein farm in the Swartland appellation of South Africa. 180ha of old   grow in the Siebritskloof part of the Paardeberg mountain. The property is owned by the baie dynamic and good looking cousins Hein and Adi Badenhorst. They are originally from Constantia. Their grandfather was the farm manager of Groot Constantia for 46 years. Their fathers were born there and farmed together in Constantia, during the days when people still ate fresh vegetables and Hanepoot grapes, drank Cinsault and there were a lot less traffic lights and hippies still had a presence. Together these two have restored a neglected cellar on the farm that was last used in the 1930s to make natural wines in the traditional manner. BADENHORST WINES

This is a blend of all the grapes from the farm, white and red. Bright and crunchy, red fruited and slightly savoury, has good spice detail, fine tannins cinching things well. Beautifully fresh and perfumed, vitality in spades and a thirst-quenching deliciousness. So vibrant, moreish and lingers with chewy, powdery-minerally character for ages. Such a delight. Drink cold! Fun. Drink 2022 - 2025. 93 Points MIKE BENNIE - The Wine Front
