About this Item
Nestled between majestic mountains on the Helshoogte pass, Delaire was established by John and Erica Platter in the early 1980s and is now one of the jewels in the Cape Winelands. Current owner, luxury brand mogul, Laurence Graff, has transformed the 'vineyards in the clouds' into a Cape art, hospitality and wine destination bar none. Under the auspice of winemaker Morne Vrey, Delaire Graff has amassed a host of awards and is listed as a ‘first growth’ producer by Tim Atkin MW.

Critics Ratings
'Red and black berries, oystershell, violets and herbs on the nose. The palate shows good fruit concentration and bright acidity, the tannins still intact. A wine with a luxurious smoothness about it.' - WINEMAG.co.za 10-Year-Old Wine Report 2024, 93/100
"'Merlot is a tough variety that demands a lot of work in the vineyards', says winemaker Morné Vrey. This small block was planted in 1999 and is worth all that graft: leafy, seamless and polished with leafy, green herb flavours and refreshing acidity.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2016, 92/100
