Spier Chenin Blanc 2017
Western Cape, South AfricaGrapes for this likeable, potent chenin were sourced from the Breede and Coastal regions of Western Cape. After light crushing and brief skin contact, and overnight cold settling, this was tank fermented where it spent three months on lees before bottling. The result is an easy and juicy white, with ripe yellow apple, pear, guava, lime, melon and pineapple on the spicy, medium-bodied palate, finishing shorter and snappy. A swig of RS rounds this out and makes it super accessible. Great value.Tasted: 11 July 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $13.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
