Sadie Family Wines
The Sadie Family strives for wines that are fresh flavorsome refined harmonious and balanced and aims to offer drinking pleasure at the highest level of quality at any stage of a wine's life: the wine-drinker's eagerness for a further glass is their measure of achievement! The Sadie's two wines Columella and Palladius originate in the soils in the Swartland region which stretches north of Cape Town between Durbanville and Piketberg inland from the Atlantic Ocean and centered on the town of Malmesbury. Importantly the area has a remarkably stable climate allowing a consistent level of quality each year in subtly different vintage conditions.
Description
The 2023 Palladius presents a remarkably bright colour for a wine already two years into maturation. It shows a vibrant, lime‑zesty and green apple entry, followed by a persistent saline note throughout. The palate reveals exceptionally refined and balanced tannins, harmonized with fresh acidity and a long-lasting finish. It is described as potentially “the wine of the vintage” and is recommended for aging in the cellar for at least 4 to 6 years.
Food Pairing
