✨ Technical Specifications
Spier's 'Good Natured' Organic Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon is an organically certified red blend from the Western Cape of South Africa. The wine typically combines Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from vineyards grown in accordance with organic farming practices. Fermentation generally takes place in stainless steel tanks, followed by oak maturation to preserve the primary fruit characteristics of dark berries and spice while providing a structured, approachable tannin profile.
