Available, delivery time: 2-5 days
- Soft and fruity with a hint of mint 🍇🌿
- Harmonious cuvée from five varieties 🍷
- Convinced the John Platter Wine Guide 🏅
This blend of Malbec (34%), Cabernet Sauvignon (30%), Petit Verdot (19%), Cabernet Franc (10%) and Merlot (7%) is medium-bodied and fruit-forward with smooth tannins and gentle oak influence. Aged for 16 to 22 months in French oak (from new to third-fill barrels), it shows both structure and finesse. On the palate, dark stewed fruit notes continue, supported by a silky mouthfeel and fine spice.
Exceptionally food-friendly, this red blend pairs beautifully with braised lamb, grilled beef fillet or sautéed mushrooms. It also shines alongside mature cheeses or enjoyed on its own in good company.
A stylish, approachable red with South African soul - smooth, layered and effortlessly enjoyable.

Plaisir: French flair at the Cape
Plaisir wines are fruity, spicy and complex
Plaisir is Conservation Champion of the WWF
In addition to the expressive wines that tantalise the senses, Plaisir has plenty to offer for the eyes. The Manor House, built in 1764, is one of the earliest and finest examples of unique Cape Dutch architecture, and the Water Mill – a replica of the historic mill created by Jacob Marais for his wife Maria in the 18th century – are architecturally interesting structures and keep the history of the estate alive to this day. This is also true of the wine cellar, built in 1993, which echoes many symbolic elements. Particularly striking are the gargoyles in the shape of griffins on the walls, which are supposed to ward off evil spirits, and the doves on the windows are a sign of peace and the new South Africa. The griffin – a mythical creature that is half eagle and half lion – also adorns the winery's logo. According to legend, a griffin guards great treasures and can thus be understood as the guardian over the vineyards of Plaisir. By combining the farsightedness of the eagle and the courage of the lion, the animal embodies the visions of previous generations on the one hand and serves as a signpost for the future on the other. To ensure this future, Plaisir is committed to flora and fauna and is one of only 38 wine estates in the Cape to have been awarded the coveted status of Conservation Champion by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF).
