It&#8217;s a Sauvignon Blanc aged under a layer of flor. Wonderfully aromatic with fresh, salty green apple, cheese and nut flavours. It&#8217;s quite saline with lively herb and cheese notes on the finish. A beautiful, delicious wine. 94\/100<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-15649\" src=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com:\/wineblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/badenhorstdassiekopsteen-500x320.jpg\" alt=\"Badenhorst\" width=\"500\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wineanorak.com:\/wineblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/badenhorstdassiekopsteen-500x320.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.wineanorak.com:\/wineblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/badenhorstdassiekopsteen-150x96.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.wineanorak.com:\/wineblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/badenhorstdassiekopsteen-400x256.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.wineanorak.com:\/wineblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/badenhorstdassiekopsteen.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Badenhorst Dassiekop Steen 2015 Swartland, South Africa<\/strong><br \/>\nA single-vineyard Chenin Blanc.
