✨ Technical Specifications
Spier Secret Sparkling Rosé is an off-dry sparkling wine produced in the Western Cape of South Africa. The wine is typically crafted from a blend of grape varieties such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. To preserve its vibrant primary fruit character and natural sweetness, the wine is produced using temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by carbonation. The Western Cape's maritime-influenced climate and diverse soil profiles contribute to the balanced acidity that offsets the wine's residual sugar.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1692 in Stellenbosch, Spier is one of South Africa's oldest and most historically significant wine farms, celebrated for its Cape Dutch architectural heritage boasting twenty-one historic gables. Acquired and revitalized in the 1990s by the Enthoven family, the estate has evolved into a global leader in regenerative agriculture, ethical sustainability, and community-centered viticulture. Sourcing fruit from prime terroirs across Stellenbosch and the greater Coastal Region, Spier crafts a versatile portfolio ranging from vibrant, everyday varietals to complex, award-winning cuvées. The estate is particularly renowned for its acclaimed '21 Gables' single-varietal expressions of Chenin Blanc, Pinotage, and Cabernet Sauvignon, alongside its innovative, terroir-driven 'Creative Block' blends.
