Spier The Yellowwood Organic White 2023

Spier The Yellowwood Organic White 2023 is pale gold in colour with a lemon rind rim. Aromas of white peach, pear and litchi, with subtle notes of spice and citrus fruit are complemented by a crisp, lingering finish.

We love The Yellowwood Organic White 2023 with spicy noodles or Thai-style curries.

Wine that’s great tasting – and great for the earth. Made with grapes farmed without pesticides or artificial fertiliser, this organic blend of 95% Chenin Blanc and 5% Viognier is deliciously crisp with flavours of citrus and subtle spice.
in the vineyard : The trellised vines are farmed to international organic standards in deep, fertile, decomposed granite soils with a high percentage of clay. The differences in altitude, aspect, solar radiation and wind exposure result in significant mesoclimate differences. Foliage and weeds are managed mechanically, creating favourable conditions for natural protection from disease. This avoids the need for environmentally damaging chemicals.
about the harvest: The Chenin Blanc and Viognier grapes were hand-harvested in the morning in 8 kg lug boxes.
in the cellar : The grapes were cooled in the cellar before hand-sorting. A low-intervention approach was used throughout the winemaking process. The cultivars were fermented separately in a combination of stainless steel tanks and French-oak barrels. Post-fermentation, the cultivars were blended together and spent 4 months on its lees to enhance the structure and marry the flavours before bottling.
