Tasting notes

A.A. Badenhorst Papegaai Cinsault 2021 - 154kr

Our red pick is his «Papegaai». Made on 100% Cinsault and packs a goody bag of flavors. Spicy, sweet-ish, delicious and fruit driven wine, that will be a cool pairing if you’re having ribs for Christmas. 
Silky smooth tannins and good length.

A.A. Badenhorst The Curator White Blend 2020 - 169kr

Our white is Adi’s cure for everything. A white blend with Chenin Blanc, Viognier, Chardonnay, Sémillon and Colombard. Fresh and very mineral driven, with lots of yellow fruits. Apricots, peaches and herbs. A beautiful wine just to drink, if you’re having seafood or cooking up some vegetarian food.
