Information about "Spier Seaward Chardonnay 2024"
The Spier Seaward Chardonnay 2024 showcases the brilliance of cool-climate fruit with charming aromas of ripe nectarine and pear candy complexity, delicately accented by almond notes. The palate reveals a creamy texture interwoven with fresh citrus zest, floral hints, and stone fruit flavors, harmoniously wrapped in integrated undertones of vanilla.
The grapes were cooled upon arrival at the winery, then crushed and subjected to a four-hour cold soak on skins. Only free-run juice was used for fermentation, which took place in 60% stainless steel tanks and 40% older French oak barrels. After fermentation, the wine spent eight months on the lees before blending the oak-aged portion with the stainless steel fermented part and bottling.
