Description
In a nutshell:
South African Cabernet at its best - all those classic blackcurrant and pencil-shaving flavours you love, with a smooth, savoury touch.
The lowdown:
Picture blackcurrants and a whiff of cedar - that's what you'll find in this South African red. It comes from the Simonsberg-Stellenbosch area where they know how to grow great Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. The winemakers have done a good job too. After handpicking the grapes, they carefully fermented them and let the wine mellow in French oak barrels. All that gives you those classic Cabernet vibes - think pencil shavings, a hint of tobacco and juicy fruit. It's got enough structure to feel serious, but with soft tannins and a lingering finish that makes it easy to enjoy.
The Producer:
Delheim Wines, nestled in the shadow of Simonsberg Mountain near Cape Town, offers a compelling tale of South African winemaking. The Sperling family's commitment to steady, sustainable growth shines through in their wines. Their measured approach has garnered both local and international acclaim, showcasing the estate's dedication to quality. While Delheim may not boast dramatic change, their understated consistency has proven a recipe for success, yielding wines that tell a story of balance and thoughtful winemaking.
When to drink:
Enjoy this versatile wine now with classic comfort foods like stews and pasta, or cellar it for a few more years if you prefer.
Suitable for Vegans
