O Produtor, tasting note published in June 21st 2021

With a high component of Sauvignon Blanc, the aromas reveal a pronounced array of waxy green apples, white citrus, clementine, chamomile, and fennel, with subtle notes of dry fynbos and lanolin. The palate is masterfully rich and broad, enveloping every corner of the mouth with intense and crystalline notes of spicy yellow grapefruit, freshly squeezed mandarins, and cordial notes of white peach. The acids are intense but wonderfully spicy, contributing to a true sense of textural harmony and mineral complexity. A very complete wine that stands out and will undoubtedly provide much pleasure to drink immediately after its release.

Duncan Savage

Dive into the art of Duncan Savage with his intriguing Duncan Savage White 2019. A reminder of the rolling terrain of the Western Cape, South Africa, where it was born. This prestigious blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, and Chenin Blanc attests to Duncan’s unwavering attention to detail and vinification acumen.

The grapes were hand-harvested and left to ferment naturally, producing a vibrant bouquet of green apple and citrus blossoms. Aged for ten months in French oak barrels, the Duncan Savage White 2019 is dominated by intense minerality that provides a grand texture and exceptional length.

Savage Wines

There is no doubt that Duncan Savage is one of the best white wine producers in South Africa. His track record speaks for itself. Taming Sauvignon Blanc and, even more so, Semillon from cool climate sites on the peninsula, he has revealed the true potential of these varieties to a whole new generation of wine producers and consumers.

Duncan spent 14 harvests as the head winemaker at Cape Point Vineyards. In 2011, he founded his own brand, Savage Wines, and since then, he has been fully absorbed and focused on taking the Savage brand to the next level and building his new urban winery in Salt River, Cape Town.
