A.A. BADENHORST The Roasted Slopes Aromatika 2023

This is a very exclusive and rare Red Blend. Bang on script, Adie pulled this out at the end of our tasting. I still have no idea what it is or how to become part of the Kalender Klub that’s touted on the label. Even Chat GPT is clueless. But it’s definitely part of the family, made from red varieties I’ve never heard of, distinctly light in style and big on flavour. You probably can’t get it anywhere other than the farm, but if you can, I recommend you do.

This vineyard is on decomposed granite soils of the Paardeberg.
