Each Spier Creative Block is named after the number of grape varieties used, so Creative Block 3 is a blend of Shiraz, Mourvèdre and Viognier. This block is a sensational wine with a great price-performance ratio. Its deep red colour flows smoothly into the glass and exudes wonderful aromas of fragrant violets, ripe pomegranates and mulberries, paired with a hint of exciting spices such as coriander and black pepper. On the palate it also shows deep, dense and finely structured with a silky character, concentrated fruit and silky dense tannins.

The wine fermented for 14 days in a combination of open oak fermentation tanks and stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation and ageing took place for 16 months in 300 l barrels of 90% French and 10% American oak, 50% of which was virgin wood and the remainder second growth.
