Spy Valley

From Espionage to Elegance

In the 1990’s, deep in the Waihopai Valley, Bryan and Jan Johnson established 180 hectares of estate vineyards on land considered too hard, too dry and too infertile for wine. This pioneering spirit is one of New Zealand’s most successful and Marlborough’s few remaining 100% Kiwi family-owned wineries.

Located up the road from a US government listening post (the Spy base) — Spy Valley Wines focuses on a sustainable philosophy and shares their secrets with us through every bottle.

A.A.Badenhorst

Unconventionally “Back to Basics”

A.A. Badenhorst Family Wines, based in the Swartland appellation of South Africa, was established in 2007 by cousins Hein and Adi Badenhorst. They purchased a neglected 60-hectare wine farm on Paarderberg Mountains, aiming to revive traditional winemaking methods. Adi, now the face of the winery, uses only traditional equipment, including a horse plow and old cement tanks for fermentation.

The vineyards, between 40-65 years old, are on granitic soils Paardeberg, Lammershoek, and Lemoenfontein. The unirrigated bushvines face East, North, and South slopes. Adi is a member of the Cape Winemakers Guild and played a key role in the Swartland Revolution and Swartland Independent. The winery, located on a granite outcrop, is acclaimed as a starting point to explore the Swartland region in South Africa.

Year Founded: 2008

Proprietors: (The handsome cousins) Hein and Adi Badenhorst

Winemaker: Adi Badenhorst

Property: 60 ha (148.5 acres) total, 25 ha (62 acres) planted

Terroir: The winery is situated on a granite outcrop within a mountain range, featuring three distinct granitic soils Paardeberg, Lammershoek, and Lemoenfontein. These soils, considered "low potential," are characterized by old age, resulting in modest vine growth compared to other regions. Yields are generally low, averaging 3–4 tons/ha for Chenin Blanc. The vineyard relies on natural water retention in the soils, eliminating the need for irrigation. With an annual rainfall of around 480mm, concentrated in winter months, the weather exhibits a Mediterranean pattern, with cold and wet winters and sudden leaf fall.

Annual Production: 10,000 cases

Varieties Cultivated: White — Roussane, Grenache Blanc, Viognier, Chenin Blanc, and Sauvignon Banc Red Shiraz, Mourvedre and Cinsault.

Vilafonté

Where The Dirt Gets Under Your Skin

Vilafonté is the first American and South African joint winemaking venture. This ground-breaking red wine project is a partnership between a respected group of wine specialists from South Africa (Mike Ratclie) and the United States (Zelma Long and Dr. Phil Freese).

The name Vilafonté is derived from the primary soil type of the 100-acre estate. Recorded as one of the oldest soil types in the world (somewhere between 750 000 and 1.5mil years old), this character forms the foundation of these wines The age of the soil is important as it is deeply evolved and has been stripped of much of its inherent capacity, that encourages smaller vines, lower yields and highly concentrated fruit.

Broadbent Vinho Verde

“The Flower Wine”

CEO and Founder of Broadbent Selections, Bartholomew Broadbent’s deep roots in Portugal inspired him to create his own range of table wines. His vision was to produce the most reliable and traditional of all Vinho Verdes and to resolve the usual whine that Vinho Verde never tastes like it tastes in Portugal.

The solution was twofold: to partner with a winery that had consistent production, and to ship the wines in refrigerated containers. The latter enable the wine to taste as fresh and spritzy as it would ever taste in Portugal, and since its launch in 2005, Broadbent Vinho Verde has rapidly earned the reputation as one of the finest Vinho Verdes.
