Smoked and roast meats. Serving Temperature: 15 °C – 17 °C.
Springfield Albariño 2022
Only the second Albariño to ever be made in South Africa's Cape. It's crafted sustainably with a 'hands off' approach and only in small quantities. But what little there is tastes fantastic. It's complex and rich, with flavours of apricot, nectarine and that vital saline minerality and bright acidity. Try this with white fish or oysters.
Springfield Life From Stone Sauvignon Blanc 2022
Hailed as one of South Africa's premier Sauvignon Blanc wines, Life From Stone is a blockbuster that delivers consistently year after year. It takes its name from the incredibly rocky soils in which it is grown. Intense, stony, minerally Sauvignon with lime, gooseberry, freshly cut green pepper and passionfruit notes. Zippy, zesty, mouthwatering, and utterly delicious. Complex and multi-layered, this is very much a food wine.
Springfield Thunderchild Merlot Cabernet 2021
34% Cabernet Franc | 33% Cabernet Sauvignon | 33% Merlot
This classical blend was created by using the ancient technique of fermenting uncrushed berries with native yeast from the grapes. After aging for one year in French barrels, it was bottled without fining or filtration. A further 12 months of bottle aging took place prior to release.
100% of the profits from this wine are donated to the Die Herberg charity which provides aid to children from broken homes.
Springfield Whole Berry Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
Springfield adopts a minimal-intervention approach in making its Whole Berry Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine takes its name, 'Whole Berry' from its vinification – with grapes macerated whole, then fermented with natural yeasts, racked, and finally matured in French oak for one year. The wine has a velvety-smooth texture with soft tannins and typical Cabernet Sauvignon notes of red fruits and hints of cedar. A tremendous bottle of Cabernet for the price.
Springfield Methode Ancienne Chardonnay 2020
The Springfield Méthode Ancienne Chardonnay is special because it was made using ancient techniques rarely used in the New World: The fermentation takes place spontaneously with wild yeast in a combination of new and used French oak barrels. There is no fining or filtration. Thus, a wine of distinctive and classical character, it will develop slowly and is made to last a lifetime. Nuances of lime, cointreau and oranges – a big wine with classical character.
Springfield Methode Ancienne Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
Thirty-five years ago, Springfeld cleared a 2.8-hectare triangle of land previously ignored because it was not ‘good’ enough - "too rocky and too steep".
Cabernet Sauvignon was planted, struggling at first with virtually no soil. The miracle was in the fruit: tiny berries – intense in colour and flavour, this meagre crop was vinified in the traditional way. No crushing of berries, native yeast only, no fining and no filters.
Wine was made with little intervention and kept for two years in new French barriques. After three more years of maturation in bottle, Springfield releases their top wine. It is a piece of their history, their passion and labour. It is their finest expression of Cabernet Sauvignon, and will age effortlessly for another two decades.
Giordano Lombardo 2022 Gavi Di Gavi
Shiner No Shiner 2015 Pinot Noir
The secret's out! This season's red shiner is the luscious vintage Pinot Noir from Beaumont Winery in Kelowna. The winery made too much so we are able to offer it under our label at a highly discounted price. You would pay almost double the price at the winery.
This cozy red shows ample fresh cherry red fruit with slight nutmeg spice from the well integrated oak treatment. Enjoy this wine by itself, or pair with cheese, pastas, or your favourite veggie stew.
