Spier 21 Gables Chenin Blanc 2014

Occasionally Chenin Blanc can reach the heights of the greatest white wine varieties in the world; this might be just such a case. This wine is fermented in 400l French oak and comes from vines older than 40 years. The aromas are those of fresh apricots, peaches and lanolin with vanillin oak complexity. The palate shows a wonderful tension between luscious ripe fruit and powerful acidity, all held together in the warm embrace of new French oak. This wine has the capacity to age well and would make an excellent partner for white fish in buttery sauces. Drink now to 2024.
