Sourced from carefully selected vineyards, this Sauvignon Blanc captures the fresh, zesty vibrancy of the variety while maintaining a well-balanced structure and crisp acidity.

Appearance: Pale straw with a slight greenish hue, shimmering with clarity and brightness. The wine’s light-bodied nature is evident in its delicate, quick-moving legs that form on the glass. When poured, it has a subtle liveliness, with the occasional presence of tiny CO2 bubbles, giving it an extra freshness. The colour suggests youthful vibrancy, typical of a well-made Sauvignon Blanc designed for early drinking.

Aroma: Expressive and aromatic, with intense notes of freshly cut gooseberries, passion fruit, and green fig. Hints of grapefruit zest, lime leaf, and subtle green bell pepper add complexity, while underlying mineral notes contribute to a clean, crisp bouquet. As the wine opens, delicate floral undertones of elderflower and a whisper of wet stone emerge, reinforcing its cool-climate origins.

Taste: A lively and refreshing palate bursting with tropical fruit flavours of passion fruit, guava, and citrus, seamlessly intertwined with green fig and crisp Granny Smith apple. The wine’s natural acidity is well-integrated, providing vibrancy and balance, while a subtle herbal edge brings additional depth. A slight saline minerality enhances the mid-palate, contributing to a crisp and mouthwatering texture.

Finish: Clean, bright, and refreshing, with lingering notes of grapefruit, flinty minerality, and a touch of saline that enhances its crispness. The wine leaves a zesty, slightly pithy sensation on the palate, reinforcing its citrus-driven profile. A whisper of fresh herbs and crushed stone adds a savoury complexity, making the finish more than just refreshing—it’s subtly layered. The mouthwatering effect encourages another sip, ensuring its appeal as an easy-drinking yet structured Sauvignon Blanc.

Food Pairing: This Sauvignon Blanc is a fantastic match for seafood dishes such as grilled prawns, ceviche, and sushi, where its zippy acidity complements the fresh flavours. It also pairs beautifully with light pasta dishes, citrus-infused salads, and herb-roasted chicken. For a casual pairing, enjoy it with goat’s cheese and crackers or a fresh summer salad, where the crispness of the wine enhances bright, herbaceous elements. Best served well-chilled to showcase its refreshing character.

The Spier Signature Sauvignon Blanc 2024 (250ml Can) is a perfect balance of convenience and sophistication, offering wine lovers a premium experience in a portable format. Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with food, it delivers a vibrant and elegant expression of Sauvignon Blanc, ideal for any occasion.
