The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.
The 21 Gables line is the flagship of the South African winery Spier. The name of these beautiful wines (21 Gables) is derived from the magnificent wine estate owned by Spier. Located in Stellenbosch, this beautiful estate boasts 21 different buildings, each with its own 21 gables. It's a tribute to the craftsmanship that has prevailed for centuries on Spier's expansive estate. A must-see for anyone near Stellenbosch, as Spier's estate is truly breathtaking!
This 21 Gables from Spier is made with Sauvignon Blanc. While not a typical South African grape, it thrives in Spier's vineyards, as evidenced by the Spier Signature Sauvignon Blanc. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are harvested early in the morning in crates of no more than 10 kilos. This minimizes crushing, preserving the best juice for the wine. After fermentation, the 21 Gables Sauvignon Blanc is aged on its own lees for another six months. This gives the wine more power, flavor, and robustness.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy! The 21 Gables Sauvignon Blanc from the Spier winery is more than just a wine. It's a complex wine. A wine with a broad palette of flavors and aromas. A sensation you'll never forget. The aroma is deep and complex. With every sniff, you discover new notes. Nuances of pear, melon, passion fruit, tropical fruit, asparagus, and grass tingle your nose. The aroma is enough to make us certain: the Spier 21 Gables Sauvignon Blanc is a delicious glass of wine. The taste is simply fantastic. Full and ripe, yet refreshing. Tropical fruits like melon and passion fruit create a beautiful palette. A hint of artichoke completes the flavor. Lively, beautiful, and powerful. Highly recommended.
