This wine very natural approach to making wine-making to respect the fruit from the oldest block of Chenin blanc on the farm. The grapes are picked early morning to keep the temperature as cold as possible and then gently pressed. Spontaneous fermentation is allowed to take place (no commercial yeast is used) which allows the wine to tell its own story and that of Delheim terroir. A complex array of wild fermentation characteristics are ever present in this edition of the Delheim wild Ferment. Dominant fragrances of stone fruits and orange peel supported by a subtle notes of honey suckle. Vibrant fruit with plentiful mouth feel and lasting finish on the palate. A truly beautiful display of an old vineyard portraying its story. Delheim Wines
