True to Terroir wines

Spier cellar master, Frans Smit, has a passion for his vineyards and is an expert at seeking out the ultimate terroir character for his top wines. He and the Woolworths wine team have covered many dusty roads to search out the best terroir for these four specific cultivars.

THE 4 BEST TO TRY

Lonely Blue Gum Sauvignon Blanc has grapefruit, lemon and gooseberry flavours, a firm palate and bracing acidity. A great partner for white meats, Thai style chicken kebabs and carbonara.

Abacus Chardonnay has appealing lemon-cream aromas, a rounded palate with well-judged oak flavours and a long finish. Enjoy with a pasta and creamy sauce, smoked salmon, roast chicken, or grilled line fish.

Koffie Klip Merlot has ripe plum and dark cherry flavours. The palate is supple and luscious with a perfect fruit and oak balance. A great match for medium rare fillet steak or juicy lamb chops.

Hutton Cabernet Sauvignon has classic blackcurrant and black olive flavours, a velvety palate with lovely ripe tannins. Perfect with slow cooked lamb or succulent steak.
