Spier Signature Shiraz

 Spier Signature Shiraz is a bold and complex wine that embodies the best of South African winemaking. Crafted from carefully selected Shiraz grapes grown in the Western Cape region, this wine is a true expression of the terroir and the winemaker's art.

This wine has a deep ruby red colour with a bright purple hue. On the nose, it reveals an intense aroma of black cherry, blackcurrant, and black pepper, with subtle hints of vanilla and oak. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied, with a velvety texture and firm tannins that give it structure and balance.

Spier Signature Shiraz has been aged for 16 months in French oak barrels, which has given it a complex and sophisticated flavour profile. The oak ageing has imparted notes of vanilla, smoke, and spice, which complement the wine's natural fruitiness and spice. The wine is well-balanced, with a long and satisfying finish.

This Shiraz is a versatile wine that pairs exceptionally well with grilled meats, stews, and hearty pasta dishes. Its bold flavour profile also makes it an excellent choice for pairing with strong cheeses or dark chocolate.

Spier Signature Shiraz is made using sustainable farming practices, which makes it a socially responsible and eco-friendly choice. The grapes are grown using natural and organic methods, with no harmful chemicals or pesticides used in the process. This ensures that the wine is not only delicious but also environmentally friendly.

In conclusion, Spier Signature Shiraz is a superbly crafted wine that offers a truly exceptional taste experience. Its bold and complex flavour profile, combined with its sustainable farming practices, make it a wine that you can feel good about enjoying. So whether you're looking for a wine to pair with your next meal or simply to savour on its own, Spier Signature Shiraz is sure to impress.
