Spier
Vintage Selection Cabernet Sauvignon
Western Cape, South Africa
Drank 9/5/19. Tasting event. Tasting pour.
Pleasant yet mild nose of dark chocolate, soil, and blackberry. Ripe, black cherry, red berry, and a hint of earth and pepper. Medium tannins and finish.
3/21/7/3/3+ 50 =87 pts.

I've enjoyed everything from Spier so far. I may have enjoyed this cab as much if not more than the Private Collection. It's less opulent; less new oak an the fruit is more restrained. cassis fruit with tobacco and leather on those nose. Finish is long with soft caramelized tannins.
