Product Notes

A.A. Badenhorst Caperitif wine is a unique and bold fortified wine that hails from South Africa. Crafted by the renowned winemaker Adi Badenhorst, this wine pays homage to the traditional Cape-style aperitif that was popular in the early 20th century. Made from a blend of Chenin Blanc, Muscat, and Hanepoot grapes, this wine boasts complex flavors of citrus, herbs, and spices. With a slightly sweet and tangy taste, Caperitif is perfect for sipping on its own or as a versatile ingredient in cocktails. This one-of-a-kind wine offers a distinctive taste of South African winemaking history with a modern twist.
