Duncan Savage, previously the winemaker at Cape Point Vineyards, introduced his own label in 2011 with a goal to produce rock-solid, classic and elegant wines. Through his time at Cape Point, Duncan grew to understand maritime vineyards, which led him to source grapes for Savage wines from maritime and high altitude sites around the Western Cape.
Now in its fifteenth vintage, Savage White remains one of South Africa’s most distinctive and refined white blends. Made from Sauvignon Blanc with a touch of Semillon sourced from three exceptional coastal sites, it’s a wine that balances precision with intensity. Aromas of blackcurrant leaf, lime zest and sea spray give way to layers of savoury depth and gentle oak nuance. The palate is textural and saline, carried by fine lees richness and vibrant acidity. A harmonious wine that captures the spirit of the Cape.
