WineDiva's Review

Complex. succulent, fresh.
From Stellenbosch's prolific and historic producer Spier, this classic Cabernet is wonderfully succulent. Notes of black currents and warm chocolate, coffee grounds, green olives, paprika and a hint of green tobacco are expressed on the nose. The palate is an echo of that with wild black fruits, brown spices, toasted oak and rich plummy undertones. Paprika and pepper linger on the finish. Notable structure and freshness here; a wine to pair with BBQ, rich stews and soups, hard cheeses, lentil or bean dishes and roasted mushrooms.


 
Recommended Pairings
Rich Meats , Barbeque, Cheese - Hard/Aged, Good First Impressions, Cellar Keepers
