Description

Rhone style blends can be found around the new world, with subtle variations that define their new homes. In South Africa, Cinsault generally forms the backbone for these blends, and the Badenhorst Secateurs is a fantastic example of the style.

Distinctly medium weight, with bright ripe red fruits, the beautiful floral perfumes that Cinsault is known for and balanced peri spice. The wine is supple and smooth with just that right amount of tannin that matches so well with food you can hold and Netflix at night.

Common style and blend, perhaps, standout wine that you keep coming back for more, ABSOLUTELY!

    A decent quaff

    Last had this wine maybe a decade ago, but had it many, many times before that. It was perhaps a margin lighter on the body and simpler than I remember, but it is still well balanced and decent value for money.

All grapes are hand-picked, chilled overnight and then crushed to open concrete tanks for natural primary fermentation which lasts around two weeks. The tanks are pigeaged (foot stomped, with clean feet, normally!) twice daily during this time. The finished wine is run off into old casks and concrete tank.

The blended wine was left on its gross lees in casks, foudres and concrete tanks for 7 months before being bottled. Lightly filtered but not fined
