Description
The 2024 Secateurs Red Blend by AA Badenhorst has to be amongst the best he’s made. Adi bought a neighbouring farm that he used to buy grapes from but now has pick of the crop for himself. There’s a hgher proportion of Cabernet in this release than usual, adding more cassis and dark fruit flavours to the mineral tinged spice of the Shiraz. Fuller than normal too, but by no means less approachable, with juicy tannins and terrific balance.
The style of the Secateurs Red changes from year to year as Shiraz vies with Cinsault to be dominant in the blend and in recent vintages the wines have become lighter and fresher.

2023 Beaujolais Villages ‘Cuvee Six’, Caves De Julienas Chaintre
Gamay
The Beaujolais Villages 'Cuvee Six' from Caves De Julienas Chaintre just gets better and better with each vintage, showing soft, rounded red fruits and vibrant cherry flavours. Complex enough to make one sit up and think yet easy going and supple at the same time. Great for lighter lunches and it can also be chilled lightly when the weather warms up!

2011 Chateau Bellegrave, AC Pomerol
Bordeaux Blend
The 2011 vintage had a hard act to follow coming after two exceptional years in Bordeaux and whilst the wines aren't as showy as the '09's and '10's they are charming and drinking beautifully with a decade in bottle.
