Spier Merlot Red Wine  (750 ml)

The Wine shows rich plum and red berry aromas, with mouth-watering caramel and a hint of smoky tobacco. A velvety-smooth Palate shows subtle oak and lingering berry flavours. Grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness, de-stemmed and crushed to stainless-steel tanks. The use of cultured and natural yeast helps to unlock the fragrant fruit profile of the grapes. After fermentation, 20% of the Wine was matured in French-oak barrels for 8 to 10 months,the remainder matured in stainless-steel tanks with French-oak staves to complement the flavour profile and length.
