Merchant's description

Aromas of cassis, plum, cedar wood and cigar box with a slight herbaceous undertone. The palate is well structured with fine and delicate tannins and beautiful oak integration. Cassis flavours linger on the finish. High on the slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain, 50 km from Cape Town, lies the family-owned Delheim estate. The Sperling family has been making wines of character for many decades and takes a holistic approach to community and land, to wine making and to enduring good business practices. Their aim has always been to nurture a strong culture of sustainable development on the farm and within the community that grows up and works together on the Delheim estate.
