The 2011 Secateurs Chenin Blanc was fermented in Adi Badenhorst’s concrete vats. It has a light bruised apple and gooseberry scented bouquet with flinty notes developing in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp acidity; well-integrated oak and a fine build towards a light honey, almond and smoked walnut tinged finish. This is very fine and unequivocally, outstanding value. Drink now-2018. Adi Badenhorst is the charismatic winemaker who alongside Eben Sadie has put Swartland on the map. Outspoken, opinionated and talented, his charisma rubs off upon the wines he creates. Moreover, they are available at extremely affordable prices and serve as a perfect introduction to the delights of Adi’s and Swartland’s wines.Importer: Broadbent Selections, San Francisco, CA; tel.
