Kalmoesfontein Red AA Badenhorst 2022

The 17th release of Adi's signature red! They're particularly pleased with the quality of the 2022 - both the proportions in the blend, but also how well the different vineyards express themselves. Brooding aromas of black cherries, pepper, liquorice and perfume. The palate is dense and layered, with notes of lavender and dark berry fruit. The finish is dry and savoury, supported by well-distributed tannins and lingering blackcurrant character. The grapes for Kalmoesfontein Red Blend are sourced from small parcels on Kalmoesfontein and Jakkalsfontein farms, located in the Paardeberg region of Swartland. These comprise bush vines planted mostly over 20 years ago on granite soils.
