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.

Under the stewardship of the Enthoven family since 1993, the estate marries its rich heritage with a progressive commitment to regenerative farming, biodiversity, and organic practices. Spier is celebrated for its diverse portfolio of expressive wines, most notably its acclaimed '21 Gables' range, which pays homage to the farm's historic Cape Dutch architectural heritage through exceptional single-varietal Chenin Blanc, Pinotage, and Cabernet Sauvignon. With a winemaking philosophy centered on minimal intervention, Spier consistently crafts elegant, terroir-driven wines that capture the unique maritime-influenced climate of the Coastal Region.
