Spier Seaward Chenin Blanc
The Spier Seaward Chenin Blanc is a fresh and fruity white wine from select coastal vineyards in South Africa. The ocean's influences provide a cooling effect, giving the grapes a natural balance of ripe fruit and vibrant acidity. This wine is powerful in flavor, with elegance and finesse in every glass.
Vineyards and region: coastal areas of South Africa
The grapes for this Chenin Blanc come from vineyards near the South African coast, where cool ocean winds and rich soil structures ensure slow ripening and intense aroma development. Spier selects only the finest plots for the Seaward series, in which terroir clearly takes center stage.
Vinification and grape variety: 100% Chenin Blanc
This wine is made from 100% Chenin Blanc. A portion is fermented in oak barrels, while the remainder is aged in stainless steel. This combination creates freshness and depth. After fermentation, some of the wine is aged on the lees, which contributes to its texture and complexity.
Tasting notes: tropical fruit, fresh acidity and a soft finish
The nose reveals aromas of ripe peach, citrus, and tropical fruit . On the palate, the wine is fresh and full-bodied, with juicy notes of melon and peach, and a mineral undertone. The acidity creates tension, while the mouthfeel is rounded out with a silky finish.
Serving suggestions: versatile
This Chenin Blanc pairs perfectly with grilled chicken, fish dishes, spicy curries, or soft cheeses . Serve chilled at around 8–10°C for the best experience.
