- Intense and complex aroma play
- Well structured, classic blend
- Received 4,5 John Platter Stars
In the glass, this red wine reveals a deep and vibrant ruby hue. The nose is expressive and elegant with ripe red fruit, violet and a touch of mint chocolate. On the palate, it unfolds beautifully with layers of dark berries, floral notes and fine spice, supported by silky, well-integrated tannins and a confident structure.
Produced with great attention to detail, the grapes were hand-harvested and sorted twice, followed by a gentle fermentation at controlled temperatures. The wine was then matured in French oak barrels for 18 months, developing impressive depth, freshness and ageing potential.
Enjoy this remarkable red blend with flavourful game, beef fillet or aged cheese - or savour it on its own to mark a special occasion. The Spier Frans K Smit is a bold yet refined wine that promises to evolve beautifully
