Table wine from Leo Erazo's vineyards planted in the 1950s, which I suppose counts as young for him. 100% Cinsault made traditionally and bottled in a 1L bottle.
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 few Palomino vineyards outside of Spain!
A deep straw yellow in color, crisp and luscious on the palate, and with enough weight and grippy texture to stand up to something rich and meaty, while also fantastic on its own.
