Description
This relatively young family owned Domaine was created in 2001 by vignerons with 4 generations of vinegrowing and winemaking expertise under their belts. They own some seriously old vines in superb sites in the Southern Rhone on a mixture of soils of red sand, clay and the classic ‘Galet’ pebbles associated with Chateauneuf du Pape. As a result, their wines posess a wonderful depth and concentration.
60% Grenache and 40% Syrah from 80 year old vines are hand harvested and then fermented in a mixture of stainless steel and old oak barrels, before blending and then ageing for a further 12 months in large demi-muid barrels. This is a terrific wine which manages to expertly balance power, elegance and finesse – the hallmarks of great southern Rhone reds. Stunning value.

2024 Secateurs Red Blend, AA Badenhorst, Swartland
Red Blend
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.

2024 Shiraz/Grenache, Hancock & Hancock, McLaren Vale
Red Blend
The Hancock and Hancock Shiraz/Grenache blend is made in a beautifully restrained and supple style. There's plenty of ripe dark plum fruit, pepper and spice courtesy of the Shiraz with the rose petal perfume and red cherry flavours of Grenache. Well balanced through to the finish, this drinks really well now, but will cellar nicely for 5 years or so.
