Tasting Notes
This unique blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Pinot Gris bursts with citrus grapefruit flavours and an ample mouth feel, yet remarkably moderate in alcohol.
About
Brother and sister team, Abrie and Jeanette Bruwer of Springfield Estate chose to take the path less travelled and go against the grain in order to make the sort of wines they want to drink. As Abrie says: ‘I only want to sell wine I am proud of and I will only get a limited number of chances to do that in my life.’
The Estate has been run by the Bruwer family for generations, descendants of the Brueres, Frenchmen who came to South Africa from the Loire Valley armed only with vines in the 1600s.
The grapes for 'Miss Lucy' are harvested at night in February. Juice settled without enzymes at -3?C for 3 weeks. 20% of Sauvignon Blanc component was barrel fermented in 2nd fill, and older, 600L barrels. 21 days alcoholic fermentation. 100 days on primary lees, all racking done under CO2.
The grape split was 41% Sauvignon Blanc, 29% Semillon, 30% Pinot Gris.
Ideal with...
