Ideology Cinsaut 2020

Ideology /ˌʌɪdɪˈɒlədʒi/
noun: Ideas + Oenology = Ideology

A Spier farm exclusive, the Ideology range provides a blank canvas of distinct varietals and blends that captures our winemaker’s most thought-provoking ideas in each bottle. Crafted from exceptional 29-year-old Cinsaut vines grown in the Voor-Paardeberg wine region near Paarl, this vintage brims with a perfumed nose of red cherries, raspberry and a hint of spice.

TASTING NOTE | DOWNLOAD TASTING NOTE
The palate has a fresh and generous texture, with well-integrated tannins and a smooth finish. A gem of an idea is to pair this red with hot smoked salmon fillets, ratatouille, or tapas such as black olives and goat's milk cheese.

ORIGIN

TERROIR / SOIL

Greywacke soil with a variety sandstone and small rock fragments.

VINEYARD AND CLIMATE CONDITIONS

The vineyard is located in the Voor-Paardeberg wine region, about 10km from Paarl.
The Cinsaut vines were planted in 1993, now 29 years old and delivered a yield of 10t/ha, in the hot and dry growing season before harvest.

WINEMAKING

The grapes where hand-picked in the earlier morning to capture freshness and acidity. The bunches were hand sorted and semi-carbonic maceration methods were used during, natural fermentation that took place in a stainless-steel tank. This technique lifts the fruit and creates intensity. After fermentation the grapes were pressed to 300L older French oak barrels, 3rd & 4th fill, and left to mature for 10 months.
