Product information "Spier Frans K. Smit White 2017"
Of a light straw colour with fresh green reflections in the glass, the Spier Discover Chenin Blanc Chardonnay exudes wonderful aromas of yellow apples, fresh guava and ripe pears, paired with hints of winter melon and citrus fruit. Well-structured and well-balanced, it caresses the palate with notes of tangy tropical fruit and a fresh and crisp finish.

The grape material was fermented separately in stainless steel tanks with the addition of selected yeast cultures at a controlled temperature. After fermentation Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay were blended. The wine matured for 2 months on the fine yeast before it was bottled for the final enjoyment.
