Tasting Notes
'95 points – Thief in the Night comes from two parcels between 600 and 680 metres on Billie and Erasmus van Zyl’s farm in Piekenierskloof and is typically graceful Grenache from a winemaker with the lightest of touches. Fermented and aged in concrete eggs and foudres, it has layers of Campari spices, blood orange and red cherry and some clove spice from 10% whole clusters. Drink 2026-2032.' Tim Atkin MW, South Africa Report 2024

Duncan Savage is at the top of his game and these 2023s showcase what South Africa is capable of. To pinpoint one word for these wines it would be purity. Within the wine trade there are few more sought after wines from the New World, and for the price, it represents truly outstanding value.
