Product information "AA Badenhorst Family Wines Raaigras Grenache 2020"

The AA Badenhorst Family Wines Raaigras Grenache is an incredibly profound and energetic red wine, which shows off with a remarkable concentration, pithy grippy tannins and a multilayered aroma of blackberry fruit, red currants, cherries as well as rooibos tea. Its aromatic balance of fruity and savory nuances provides enjoyment of a special kind. A highly endowed top wine, which presents itself both delicate and at the same time powerful, lush and yet refined as well as stunning and at the same time light and thus gives an immensely harmonious whole.

The grapes for this top wine come from the oldest Grenache vineyard in South Africa, which was planted in 1952 and only 1599 bottles were produced.

Treatment in the cellar

Das Traubengut wurde mit großer Sorgfalt im Weinberg ausgelesen und in kleinen Ernteboxen zur Kellerei transportiert, wo es zunächst 24 Stunden in einem Kühlbehälter gelagert wurde. Die Trauben wurden komplett entrappt und in kegelförmigen Betontanks vergoren, wobei der Wein einmal täglich umgepumpt wurde. Kurz vor Abschluss der Fermentierung wurde der Wein abgepresst und in 500 l Eichenfässer umgefüllt, wo er eine Reifung von 12 Monaten abschloss, bevor er von der groben Hefe abgeschöpft und ungefiltert auf die Flasche gefüllt wurde.
