The grapes for this wine come from a vineyard high in the mountains of Clanwilliam, 25 miles from the sea at 1600ft elevation. Dry farmed, as there is no longer any water available, these 50 +/- year old vines produce a mere 2.5 tons per hectare. The wine has lime/citrus notes with firm acidity. 50% barrel fermented/matured in 400 litre french oak barrels.
A delicate style with layers of cherry and strawberries on the pallet with an herbal nose. This wine has a good acidity, showing soft vanilla flavours on the finish.
A delicate style with layers of cherry and wild rasberries on the pallet with a hint of spice on the nose. This wine has a good acidity, showing a floral lift on the finish. The wine’s name and label are an homage to the “paper mosaics” of 18th century artist Mary Delaney. 72 year-old Delaney used hundreds of tiny pieces of colored paper to create portraits of flowers picked from her garden. She’d created over a thousand portraits before her eyesight began to fail her.
