Spier Seaward Pinotage 2022

This Seaward Pinotage serves up lashings of rich black cherries and mulberry elements, followed by a complex midpalate with allspice and vanilla aromas. This medium- to fullbodied wine shows excellent balance and beautiful integration.
Deep ruby red with a youthful purple hue.

Serve with Lamb kebabs or grilled venison with a sweet barbecue or plum sauce. For a vegetarian option, serve with grilled vegetables such as eggplant, beetroot and mushrooms.

in the vineyard : The grapes for this cool climate wine were selected from 8– 26-year-old trellised vines, grown on flat to cooler, eastfacing slopes to promote fruit preservation. Rich, deep, decomposed granite soils with good water retention and medium-fertility resulted in low, concentrated yields that contributed to the complexity and tannin structure of the wine.
about the harvest: The grapes were hand-harvested
in the cellar : The grapes were  de-stemmed and fermented in stainless-steel tanks for colour extraction and fruit preservation. Fermentation was completed in 15 days, followed by racking to 30% new and 70% third-fill barrels to continue malolactic fermentation in 80% French and 20% American oak barrels. The wine was blended after 14 months of maturation.
