✨ wine.spec_sheet
Spier's Seaward Sauvignon Blanc is produced from grapes grown in the Coastal Region of South Africa, specifically from vineyards situated close to the ocean where maritime breezes temper the climate. The wine is typically 100% Sauvignon Blanc. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve primary fruit aromas, followed by a period of maturation on the fine lees to add mid-palate weight and texture before bottling.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Established in 1692, Spier is one of South Africa's oldest and most historic wine farms, located along the Eerste River in the heart of the Stellenbosch region. 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.
