Grenache has a bit of an identity problem.

It is one of the world’s great wine grapes, widely planted across the Mediterranean and beyond, yet many wine drinkers rarely see the word Grenache on the bottle. It often disappears into regional names and blends.

And then there’s Grenache Blanc. The white mutation of Grenache gets even less attention, which is a shame. It can produce beautifully textured, expressive wines with freshness, body and a character quite different from the usual white varieties filling the shelves.

We’ve always thought it deserved a little more attention. That’s why Grenache Blanc has an important place at Solms-Delta, both in our wines and as a variety we think more people should discover.

If Grenache Blanc isn't already in your rotation, perhaps it's time.

1.37 million tons of grapes. And eventually, a bottle on your table.

There’s an enormous South African wine industry behind every glass, but what makes it interesting are the individual places and wines within it.

Our corner of the story is Solms-Delta Wine Company in Franschhoek.

International Youth Day.

At Solms-Delta, we are surrounded by history. Our roots in Franschhoek reach back more than three centuries.

But history only matters if we also invest in what comes next.

Today we celebrate South Africa’s young people: the entrepreneurs, farmers, artists, winemakers, scientists and leaders who will shape a country very different from the one previous generations inherited.

Our responsibility is to make sure they have the opportunity to do it.

The future of South Africa belongs to them. And it deserves our investment.

Winter has arrived in Franschhoek.

The days are shorter, the evenings a little cooler, and the kitchen becomes the heart of the home.

A bottle opened while dinner is on the stove. Another waiting for friends to arrive. Good conversation that lingers long after the plates have been cleared. That's what winter was made for.

Which Solms-Delta are you opening first?

National Wine Day.

A good day to slow things down a little and open something worth sharing.

At Solms-Delta, we’ve always believed wine is at its best when it reflects where it comes from; the land, the people, and the moment around the table.

From Franschhoek to wherever you’re opening your next bottle, here’s to South African wine continuing to earn its place on the world stage.

27 April. Freedom Day. A day that carries real weight in South Africa.

Nelson Mandela spoke about freedom not as a single moment, but as something to be lived, protected, and shared.

At Solms-Delta, that idea has always mattered. In the land, in the people behind the wines, and in the stories that continue to shape this place.

Today is a reminder of how far South Africa has come, and what it took to get here.

World Viognier Day.

It’s easy to think of Viognier on its own, but some of the best expressions come when it’s part of something bigger.

In both the 2023 and 2024 vintages of Amalie, Viognier plays its role — adding lift, texture, and that subtle aromatic edge that keeps you coming back to the glass.

Not dominant. Just exactly where it should be. A good day to open one.

We agree.

South African wine has been building toward this moment for years. Better sites, better farming, and a clearer sense of identity across regions like Franschhoek.

At Solms-Delta, that shows up in wines like Amalie — textured, balanced, and made to sit with, not rush through.

It’s not that these wines are new.
More people are just starting to pay attention.

Worth exploring if you haven’t in a while.
