{"product_id":"delheim-vera-cruz-pinotage","title":"Delheim Vera Cruz Pinotage","description":"\u003cp\u003ePinotage at the level that this grape variety so often lacks: dark, juicy, with real substance — not a simple everyday wine, but a Stellenbosch red wine with attitude.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eDelheim\u003c\/b\u003e is situated on the Simonsberg slopes in the heart of Stellenbosch. The winery was established in the 1950s by Michael Hans \u0026quot;Spatz\u0026quot; Sperling and remains family-owned to this day. The Vera Cruz Pinotage bears the name of his wife, Vera—a personal wine with corresponding ambition. The 2017 vintage received five stars from John Platter and 95 points from Tim Atkin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In the glass: deep ruby ​​red with a violet rim. The nose reveals black cherry and mulberry, with a distinct hint of dark chocolate underneath. On the palate, full-bodied, the fruit juicy and direct, tannins round and well-integrated, long finish without any harshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Serving temperature 16–18 °C. Pairs well with leg of lamb with rosemary, grilled beef steak, or spicy cheeses like Manchego. Also a convincing companion on its own in the evening.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Delheim","offers":[{"title":"2022","offer_id":52694967583056,"sku":"V10137","price":39.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2023","offer_id":53093127291216,"sku":"V10137-2023","price":39.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/vinoscout_delheim_vera_cruz_pinotage.webp?v=1771238273","url":"https:\/\/www.vinoscout.de\/en\/products\/delheim-vera-cruz-pinotage","provider":"Vinoscout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
