Delheim was the first ever wine estate I had the pleasure of visiting. This was quite a long time ago and I remember running around like a little hooligan. That's probably because at that stage I was a little hooligan. With the passing of time and the associated wisdom that is (hopefully) inevitable, I decided that, on my recent visit to the estate, I needed a well executed covert operation. You never know, they may well have had a 'wanted' picture of me in reception. I negotiated my way through the vineyards and into the tasting room and quietly went about my business. What I can tell you, if you can keep a secret, is that their Gewurztraminer and Pinotage, as well as a few other things, are very good.
Delheim has wine pairings with cakes and pancakes, and have evenings that involve cheese fondues and jazz. Worth a visit I would say. Where else can you have your cake and a glass of wine too.
