The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.
Although Spier Winery has been active in producing South African wine for centuries, its creativity thankfully hasn't run out. That's why this new wine series was created: the Creative Series. Each wine is a successful blend, showcasing Spier's creativity. Beautiful blends of grape varieties that complement each other perfectly. They bring out the best in each other, but above all, they're delicious with every sip.
Perhaps one of the finest South African wines in this price range. A superb red wine you'll never tire of. 5 Creative Block Bordeaux Blend from Spier Winery is an ode to Bordeaux wines. As the name suggests, it uses five typical Bordeaux grapes: Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, and Petit Verdot, blended in precisely the right proportions by Spier's winemaker. 5 Creative Block Bordeaux Blend is a sublime glass of wine that reveals the versatility of Spier Winery. Perhaps a perfect wine for our South African selection.
You can never get enough of 5 Creative Block Bordeaux. Every sip will leave you craving the next. Just smelling this red South African wine will make you thirsty. A beautiful aroma palette. You'll smell red berries, cherries, and plums. But also complex notes of vanilla, tobacco, and a touch of earth. 5 Creative Block Bordeaux immediately unleashes the moment you pour it into your glass. The taste will leave you speechless. A flavor explosion unfolds in your mouth. Wow, wow, wow. Aromas of cherries, blackberries, but also laurel, vanilla, tobacco, and wood roll across your tongue. Complex, flavorful, and a fitting tribute to the Bordeaux region. A phenomenal glass from South Africa. A favorite of many wine lovers. Our advice: stock up, because one bottle is never enough!
