Springfield Estate
Set in the heart of the mountain-ringed Robertson Valley in the Western Cape of South Africa, Springfield Estate is a family-run wine farm owned by ninth-generation descendants of French Huguenots, who came to South Africa from the Loire in 1688 with bundles of vines under their arms. The farm has been in the family since 1898 and today, using a combination of sometimes risky winemaking techniques, traditional methods and modern technology, along with a sense of practicality and dogged determination borne from living off the land all their lives, the Bruwer family is able to handcraft wine true to its motto: Made on Honour.
Description
The 2024 Springfield Estate Sauvignon Blanc “Special Cuvée” is expressive and refined. Aromas of passion fruit, nettles and citrus melon mingle with a smoky, flinty mineral character. On the palate it is medium-bodied, zesty and tangy, with tropical fruit flavors (pineapple, melon, lemon‑curd), herbal undertones (gooseberry, nettle) and a saline, mineral finish of excellent length.
Food Pairing
Ideal pairing includes fresh shellfish (oysters, prawns), goat’s or feta cheeses, grilled calamari or tuna salad, and dishes with citrusy or herbaceous character. It also works beautifully as a crisp aperitif.
