Information about "Spier The Yellow Wood Organic Red Blend 2020"
Spier The Yellow Wood Organic Red Blend is a remarkable wine that not only delights the palate but also embodies ecological stewardship. This exquisite organic cuvée is produced from grapes that thrive without pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. It captivates with bold aromas of pomegranate, cassis, and red cherries, leading to a fruit-forward yet spicy palate. The fine tannin integration and well-balanced acidity leave a lasting impression.
The grapes are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness, with each berry meticulously inspected for quality. Following a gentle crushing, the fruit is placed into stainless steel tanks. A mix of natural and cultivated yeasts is used to ferment the grapes over 24 days. The resulting free-run juice is matured in 35% new French oak barrels, with 75% going into second and third-fill barrels. After 16 months of aging, the wines are expertly blended.
