Tasting Notes

So-named for the deep yellow granite rocks in this vineyard, with a good proportion of clay too, and quite  a steep slope too. This is utterly beautiful - with yellow plums, fuzzy apricot skins, vanilla cream with herbaceous notes too and an immensely tangy, fruit laden but taut palate. This is the last Golden Slopes that will be ever made as Adi Badenhorst now blends his five micro Chenin vineyards to make one wine named Grensloos which has received excellent reviews so far.

More Info

We firmly believe that Adi Badenhorst is the most exciting winemaker in South Africa. He is also the most frustrating. His laid back, self-deprecating, playful manner keeps you guessing and makes you wonder whether he has any idea what he is actually doing, whether he just chucks some grapes into a vat and hopes for the best, but we know full well that there is a huge amount of expertise that goes on behind closed doors, when no one is around to witness his skill and diligence ...and spoil his reputation!
