At optimal ripeness, both varieties are harvested separately and transported in small crates to Yvon Mau's winery. Here, the grapes are sorted on long tables so that only the finest fruit is selected for pressing.

Another reason is that the daytime heat could already cause the grapes to oxidize, which is obviously undesirable. Once the grapes arrive at the press, they are sorted on long sorting tables.

The estate boasts 21 buildings with 21 different gables. One of Spier Estate's series, the 21 Gables Collection, has also graced these 21 gables. The estate and its buildings date back to 1692 when founder Arnout Janz, a German colonist, purchased part of an old riverbed. Winegrowing was emerging in South Africa, and he saw the potential of the fertile riverbed. From that moment on, Spier Estate became a reality. Over the years, there have been the necessary modernizations, but always with the preservation of the estate as it was back then.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Spier Signature Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nBesides the 21 Gables Collection, there are several wine series, including the Signature Collection. This series was specially developed to give Spier its signature to world wines. And they certainly succeeded. A beautiful example from this Signature Collection is the Spier Cabernet Sauvignon. While Cabernet Sauvignon is a grape variety that enjoys global success, Spier manages to put its own unique spin on it. The grapes are planted in somewhat poorer soil. This is important for Cabernet Sauvignon, otherwise, only the leaves of the vines might thrive. Furthermore, the warm daytime temperature is crucial. The warm sunshine allows the grapes to develop optimally. After hand-harvesting and pressing, 20% of the wine is aged in oak barrels for 8 to 10 months. The remainder is aged in stainless steel barrels containing oak staves, giving the wine even more power and suppleness. The result?\n\n\n\n \u003ch2\u003eWhat does the Spier Cabernet Sauvignon taste like?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n A wonderfully powerful red wine! The color is deep dark red with a purple rim. The nose offers full aromas of black cherries, currants, and blackberries interspersed with notes of vanilla, licorice, and a hint of paprika. The taste is powerful, full-bodied, yet smooth!

This gives the wine a powerful and intense fruit character. Fermentation at a controlled temperature of 25 degrees Celsius preserves the fruit in the wine perfectly. Finally, eighty percent of the wine is aged for nine months in French and American oak barrels. The remaining twenty percent sees only stainless steel.

Over the years, the winery has invested heavily in new techniques, making its wines even more exquisite. All this without compromising the long-standing traditions of Sicily. With the arrival of top winemaker Stefano Choccioli, everything came together, and it's no wonder that these Canapi wines are doing so well.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The old Nero d'Avola vineyard of Canapi\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThe vineyards for this red Canapi Nero d'Avola are located in the Riesi region, between Ragusa and Agrgento. Here, the Nero d'Avola grapes grow under the best conditions. Plenty of sunshine contributes to the wine's fruitiness, but fortunately, the sea breeze slows ripening. Otherwise, the grapes would simply ripen too quickly. After a calm and balanced growing season, the grapes are harvested partially by hand in the early morning. The chance of oxidation is lowest in the morning, and the grapes retain their freshness.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The aroma and taste of the Canapi Nero d'Avola\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n As soon as the bottle is opened, we smell the Sicilian sun, bursting with red and black fruit. This delightful aroma is enhanced upon pouring, revealing a dark red color. Swirl the wine vigorously in a large glass, and we'll encounter notes of blackberry, cherry, and currant, complemented by a touch of chocolate and sweet spices. The finish is soft, yet very smooth, with abundant fruity notes.","brand":"De Monnik","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775764369487,"sku":"6018","price":7.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/CanapiNerod_AvolaSiciliaDOC.webp?v=1765794513"}],"url":"https:\/\/perfectewijn.nl\/en\/collections\/toegankelijk-rood.oembed?page=7","provider":"Perfecte Wijn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
