Description

Springfield Estate

Springfield Estate, located in the Robertson Valley, is renowned for its focus on producing wines that reflect the unique characteristics of its terroir. The Life from Stone Sauvignon Blanc is one of their signature wines, named after the stony soils in which the grapes are grown. These soils impart a distinctive minerality to the wine, which is further enhanced by the estate’s approach of using minimal intervention, allowing the natural qualities of the fruit to shine. The wine is fermented in steel tanks, and its purity and crisp acidity are complemented by intense citrus and tropical fruit flavors. In a similar vein, Springfield’s Wild Yeast Chardonnay is fermented using the natural yeasts found on the grapes and in the cellar, which adds layers of complexity and depth to the wine. The result is a Chardonnay that reflects the essence of the vineyard, with a balance of richness and freshness, a true expression of the estate’s commitment to organic and sustainable winemaking. Both wines highlight Springfield Estate’s philosophy of producing wines that are naturally expressive of their environment and crafted with minimal intervention.
