Information about "Spier Creative Block 3 2020"
Each Spier Creative Block is named after the number of grape varieties used, so Creative Block 3 is a blend of Shiraz, Mourvèdre and Viognier. This block is a sensational wine with a great price-performance ratio. Its deep red colour flows smoothly into the glass and exudes wonderful aromas of fragrant violets, ripe pomegranates and mulberries, paired with a hint of exciting spices such as coriander and black pepper. On the palate it also shows deep, dense and finely structured with a silky character, concentrated fruit and silky dense tannins.
