Profile

Description

"Year after year, Spier's Chenin Blanc is dependably one of the top value wines you'll find on the shelf. This youthful 2020 vintage shows a whiff of sulphur dioxide upon opening, but that's quick to dissipate. What remains is attractive honeyed orchard fruits and some of Chenin's inherent savouriness. Wines at this price point can sometimes be style driven, but this admirably stays true to the variety while still being dry (3 g/L residual sugar), approachable, and ready to pour for just about any occasion," from Geoffrey Moss MW(04/2021).

Pairing

Seafood salad, smoked salmon, or pasta with mushroom sauce.

Aromas and Flavours

Melon

Sweet and fruity, with a particular flavour/scent that resembles persimmons

Grapefruit

As refreshing as aromas come, the smell of grapefruit is purely invigorating.

Lemon-lime

Common in cool climate white wines, this aroma can range from fresh citrus to lemon zest.

Stone

Remember playing with pebbles as a child and giving them a lick out of curiosity?

Apple

From Granny Smith to Red Delicious, apple makes for a delightfully crisp aroma.
