Spier Frans K Smit CWG Special Edition 2018
52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot, 8% Cabernet Franc
Grapes were hand-picked, destemmed and hand-sorted before fermentation. The wine was naturally fermented in stainless steel, followed by maturation in 225 litre French oak barrels for a period of 20 months.
Tasting Notes: Hints of cigar box notes on the nose followed by berries, a faint sensation of mint and savoury undertones, the wine is complex and dense in structure with a silky mid-palate and a smooth, lengthy finish.
Ready for drinking now or allow to mature for 10 to 12 years.
This wine is packed in a wooden box.
