✨ Technical Specifications
Spier's 'Good Natured' Organic Chenin Blanc is produced from organically certified vineyards in the Western Cape of South Africa. Made from 100% Chenin Blanc, this wine is crafted with minimal intervention to highlight the natural characteristics of the grape. Fermentation typically takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by a brief period on the fine lees to add texture without the influence of oak. The resulting style is fresh, fruit-forward, and expressive of the region's Mediterranean climate and diverse soil profiles.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1692 in Stellenbosch, Spier is one of South Africa's oldest and most historically significant wine farms, celebrated for its Cape Dutch architectural heritage boasting twenty-one historic gables. Acquired and revitalized in the 1990s by the Enthoven family, the estate has evolved into a global leader in regenerative agriculture, ethical sustainability, and community-centered viticulture. Sourcing fruit from prime terroirs across Stellenbosch and the greater Coastal Region, Spier crafts a versatile portfolio ranging from vibrant, everyday varietals to complex, award-winning cuvées. The estate is particularly renowned for its acclaimed '21 Gables' single-varietal expressions of Chenin Blanc, Pinotage, and Cabernet Sauvignon, alongside its innovative, terroir-driven 'Creative Block' blends.
