Product information "Spier Signature Merlot 2021"

The Spier Signature Merlot presents itself in a glass of ripe and royal-looking crimson with a nose of red and black berries, juicy plums and undertones of eucalyptus and mint. The palate is also caressed by delicious nuances of juicy fruit and mint as well as wonderfully soft tannins.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for the Spier Signature Merlot were gently crushed, destemmed and cooled down. After a two-day cold swelling phase, the juice was fermented at a controlled temperature of 24°C in stainless steel tanks. On completion of fermentation, 20% of the wine matured in French barriques for 8-10 months, while the remaining portion fermented in stainless steel tanks using French oak.
