Characteristics Badenhorst Secateurs Chenin Blanc

Badenhorst Secateurs Chenin Blanc is an organic white wine aged on lees made by A.A. Bandenhorst with the Chenin Blanc variety in the South African region of Swartland (Coastal Region).

Keen to follow in their grandparents’ footsteps, cousins Hein and Adi Badenhorst set up their own winemaking project by restoring the family farm in Swartland, 100 km north of Cape Town (South Africa). Badenhorst now leads the Swartland Revolution, a movement of new winemakers who make their wines with minimal intervention and maximum expression of the terroir.

The Badenhorst Secateurs Chenin Blanc grapes come from organic vineyards from the farm itself and from neighbouring producers that work with the same philosophy. These are old vines lying north of the Paardeberg mountain and planted in granite soils. No chemicals are used and all treatments are organic and biological. The harvest is carried out manually and placed in small boxes.

In the winery, the Badenhorst Secateurs Chenin Blanc grapes spend the first night in cold stores and the next day they are pressed and allowed to ferment spontaneously for 20 days, with 25% doing so in old wooden foudres. Finally, all the wine ages with lees for 7 months before being bottled.

Badenhorst Secateurs Chenin Blanc is a little treasure made with South Africa’s quintessential white variety. Delicious ripe fruit with vibrant freshness.
