Springfield Life from Stone Sauvignon Blanc

Every decision made on this Estate has one common goal – the wines. Their wines are the true fruits of their labour, their raison d’etre, the gift they share with the world after years of toil.  Fortunate to be able to farm a variety of cultivars on the Estate thanks to the diverse soils, and the aim to truly express these individual terroirs through a minimal, hands-off approach to winemaking, they have created an array of wonderful wines which are a must try.

Tasting Notes

Life from Stone derives its name from the incredibly rocky soils in which it is grown. Every year the vineyard battles against nature in order to produce highly concentrated, powerful wines with a flinty, mineral character true to the quartz rock in which it is grown. Monumental human effort was required to plant the vines – implements destroyed, and, in the case of the older vineyards, dynamite deployed. A true expression of the site’s terroir, this wine will drink well now, or can be enjoyed in the next 2-3 years.

Food Pairing

Pairs beautifully with seafood.
