This is a rich and complex wine with beautifully integrated oak complimenting notes of peach and nectarine.
- High on the slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain, 50 km from Cape Town, lies the family-owned Delheim estate. Here the Sperling family has been making wines of character for many decades
- The grapes were handpicked, followed by crushing, de-stemming and gentle pressing. Only two thirds of the juice was settled with enzymes; the balance was taken directly to barrel for fermentation.
- This is a rich and complex Chenin. Beautifully integrated oak complements notes of peach, nectarine and grapefruit. The finish is long and honeyed, with a mineral undertone.
