lightly wooded wine with sweet tannins and nutty undertones that

Blend with an intriguing twist.

Background
Label detail; Langarm [‘straight-arm’]
captures the mood of the Cape at the end of a long working week. It
can be danced to just about any kind of music, but 'Boeremusiek' is
definitely best. We dance it with our arms extended like
melodramatic windsurfers. Outsiders find it comical, but that is
only until they have tried it.

Winery
Franschhoek
Solms-Delta is so much more than a wine estate. A trust
was established that benefits the estate’s historically
disadvantaged residents and employees. Then they were given an
equal (one third) equity stake in the winery. From the profits, the
farm residents enjoy new, refurbished and comfortable homes, and
social programs that have greatly improved their health, education
and general quality of life.
