Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for the Spier Signature Merlot were gently crushed, destemmed and cooled down. After a two-day cold swelling phase, the juice was fermented at a controlled temperature of 24°C in stainless steel tanks. On completion of fermentation, 20% of the wine matured in French barriques for 8-10 months, while the remaining portion fermented in stainless steel tanks using French oak.
