A.A. Badenhorst Klip Kop Steen Chenin Blanc 2020
This vineyard was planted in 1966 on a 0.6 hectare plot. It is a great reminder of Adi’s love for fresh young, white Burgundy with plenty of delicate just-ripened stone fruits and green mango characters. The wine drinks with a smooth texture with an unaggressive acid structure.

A.A. Badenhorst Raaigras Grenache 2020
This is a beautiful Grenache coming from one of their oldest sites planted in 1952. Ripe and rustic, with powerful sweet spices and plenty of smoky toast aromas. There's a light grip to the palate which is balanced with noticeably refreshing acidity and light jammy fruit. A gentle concentration follows through with a long-lingering finish. Beautifully refined.
