Tasting Notes
A maximum of 2 bottles per customer. '...the peerless SBS which just seems to get finer and finer as the years drift by' - Matthew Jukes. 'This is the fifteenth vintage of Duncan Savage's icon white and it's up there with his best releases. Combining Sauvignon Blanc and 21% Semillon from three different sites, it's an effortlessly complex, self-assured blend with fine lees, layers of blackcurrant leaf, seaweed and lime, subtle wood and a savoury, salty undertone. Sublime stuff. 2027-32. 97 points.' Tim Atkin MW

He may have made his name as a Sauvignon Blanc specialist at the illustrious Cape Point Vineyards where he stacked up a very impressive roster of awards, but Duncan is a winemaker with many strings to his bow, and winemaking capacities that go far beyond Sauvignon Blanc. He has been on very fine form for the last few years, but right now? Oh boy, he's on fire. "Duncan Savage thinks he hasn't hit his full potential yet. Heaven help his rivals when he does."- Tim Atkin MW. Awarded winemaker of the year twice in 2023! Duncan Savage was awarded 'winemaker of the year' by Tim Atkin MW, and by the editor of Platter's Guide to South Africa Wines in 2022.
