It was this surfer-turned winemaking maestro who established the stellar, Platter’s Wine Guide-wowing reputation of Cape Point Vineyards with his stellar Sauvignons. That was until 2016, when he boldly struck out alone to make the wines he always wanted to. Throughout his time at Cape Point, Duncan grew to understand coastal sites, and has continued to seek out maritime and high elevation sites across the Western Cape. A Sauvignon master he may be, but his reds are outstanding too, and some of SA's most sought after wines. From Grenache, to Cinsault and Syrah, Duncan can not put a foot wrong.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"savage-white-2024","title":"Savage White 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA maximum of 2 bottles per customer.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e'...the peerless SBS which just seems to get finer and finer as the years drift by'\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e - Matthew Jukes. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-teams=\"true\"\u003e'This is the fifteenth vintage of Duncan Savage's icon white and it's up there with his best releases.
