AA Badenhorst Family Wines are grown, made and matured on Kalmoesfontein farm in the Swartland appellation of South Africa. 180ha of old bush vines grow in the Siebritskloof part of the Paardeberg mountain. The property is owned by 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. Hein and Adi restored a neglected cellar on the farm that was last used in the 1930′s to make natural wines in the traditional manner.
This is light in alcohol, full in flavour, this wine packs a punch, and has certainly grown up over the last few vintages, whilst remaining in the red fruit spectrum.
