Description
The Secateurs Chenin Blanc by AA Badenhorst wine is exceptional, showing complex yet fresh and mouth watering fruit flavours mingled with honey, stone fruits and orange blossom, with a long, softly textured finish.
This wine consistently provides exceptional value drinking from vintage to vintage. Yields are very low, the fruit is organic and hand harvested over multiple passages through the vineyard, and fermentation is kickstarted by natural yeasts and extends over a long period. A little bit of old oak is used to add to the texture. Nearly all Chenin with a dash of Palomino, and perhaps another secret ingredient.
“A fabulous bargain. Over delivers in the most delightful way”. Jancis Robinson MW

2019 Bordeaux Blanc Sec, Chateau Saransot-Dupre
Semillon/Sauvignon
Chateau Saransot-Dupre is a favourably sited 17 hectares property that lies between Fourcas Dupré and Fourcas Hosten in Listrac. Due to Listrac’s cooler temperatures, Merlot and Cabernet Franc are favoured over Cabernet Sauvignon to form the majority of the blend, helping them achieve optimum ripeness. Much like Chateau Fourcas Hosten, the wines have improved year on year since 2010 and the property were put on the radar thanks to a certain Robert Parker hailing the 2010 vintage as 'classed growth quality'. High praise indeed!
