Bites: Pancake Pairings

It is now pancake weather all year round at Delheim Estate in Stellenbosch, thanks to the

recent introduction of decadent Pancake & Wine Pairings. The whole wheat salmon pancake is filled with salmon trout and cream cheese and topped with caper berry shavings. It is paired with the Delheim Pinotage Rosé, as the delicate floral and berry notes of the wine pair well with this lighter style of pancake filling. The hearty lamb shank pancake is paired with the aromatic Delheim Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine’s blackcurrant, spice, and dark chocolate flavours work wonders with the meaty pancake mouthfuls, ending with a rich and lingering aftertaste. The tasting ends with a delicious pickled pumpkin pancake, which shares the spotlight with the estate’s Edelspatz Nobel Late Harvest. The lovely sweetness of this award-winning wine marries perfectly with the sugary acidity of the pancake. The Delheim Pancake & Wine Pairings are on offer seven days a week at the tasting room.
