Spier Good Natured Organic Chenin Blanc 2023

Spier Good Natured Organic Chenin Blanc 2023 is full of typical yet refined aromas of the Sauvignon Blanc grape variety, with abundant grapefruit, litchi and gooseberries. The palate is lively, with well-balanced acidity. The finish is crisp, pure and refreshing.

This would perfectly match zesty fish, chicken salads or goat’s cheese.

AWARDS
2024 Global Chenin Blanc Masters - Master
   

Wines that taste good and do good. These standout wines are distinctive for two reasons: not only for their exceptional quality, but also because they are organically farmed, crafted and officially certified. Dependent on a limited supply of high quality organic grapes, these wines are still crafted in relatively limited quantities.

in the vineyard : From terroir unfettered by artificial pesticides, fungicides and fertilisers. The organically grown Sauvignon Blanc grapes grow in two vineyard blocks, four and six years in age and planted in rich lime Karoo soils in an area called Lutzville. Situated 10 km from the Atlantic coast, the vineyards enjoy moderate day temperatures with cool nights and receive an annual rainfall of approximately 150 mm.

about the harvest: The grapes were harvested at night to help maintain freshness and prevent oxidation.

in the cellar : The cooled grapes were de-stemmed, slightly crushed, and lightly pressed in the cellar. This cool climate grape's natural acidity levels were respected, with no additional acidity added throughout the winemaking process. The juice was fermented in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. Maturation occurred on the gross lees for four months prior to bottling to give the wine extra elegance, flavour, and freshness.
