THE SAUVIGNON BLANC THIS YEAR IS FROM TWO DIFFERENT SITES. HALF WAS HAND-PICKED FROM AMERICAN RIVER, AND THE REST WAS MACHINE PICKED FROM THE FALSE CAPE VINEYARD ON THE EASTERN END OF THE ISLAND. THE HAND-PICKED FRUIT WA S PRESSED DIRECT TO BARREL, WHILST THE OTHER HALF WAS PRESSED TO TANK AND COLD SETTLED. ONCE THE BARRELS HAD STARTED FERMENTING SOME OF THE JUICE WAS SYPHONED AND BLENDED TO THE TANK PORTION. THE TANK WAS FERMENTED COOL TO RETAIN AROMATICS. THE BARRELS GOT TO A TEMP IN THE MID-TWENTIES, BUILDING COMPLEXITY. THE BARRELS WERE TOPPED FROM THE TANK ONCE EVERYTHING WAS DRY AND STIRRED ONCE A WEEK FOR TWO MONTHS TO DEVELOP TEXTURE BEFORE BLENDING.

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Newtown – We created SPÖN as a cozy neighbourhood bottle shop and wine bar that feels relaxed, welcoming and distinctly its own. Creative, a little gritty, a little playful and always full of something new & unexpected — just like Newtown.
A bottle shop with a bar problem.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
