Product Notes

A.A. Badenhorst Caperitif is a distinctive South African vermouth. A magnificent revival of an old Cape aperitif style, it blends rich Chenin Blanc wines with natural botanicals such as fynbos, kalmoes, and naartjie. It offers a complex bouquet, with delicate floral notes on the nose and spicy, citrusy undertones, evoking the wild spirit of the Cape lands. On the palate, it is a harmonious balance of sweet and bitter, with a smooth, velvety finish. Perfect for cocktails or on its own, it's a unique treat for the discerning wine enthusiast.
