So you end up with a gallimaufry of grape varieties in some blends, yet nurtured beautifully by Duncan to create some thrilling, quite cerebral but delicious wines.” – Neal Martin for Vinous. \u003cbr\u003eAfter completing his studies at Elsenburg Agricultural college in Stellenbosch, Duncan Savage started a 14-year stint at Cape Point Vineyards where he became known for making profound, saline driven white wines with intense minerality and remarkable ageing potential. In 2011, he began his own side-project, Savage Wines. By 2016, his wines had garnered such critical acclaim that it afforded him the opportunity to put all his energy and focus into his own wines. He bought a cellar in Salt River, an urban space in the heart of Cape Town, where he continues to craft his magic. His range at present consists of 8 wines from grapes sourced from around the Western Cape, ideally maritime in nature. Granitic soils are the focus which translates into wines of purity and finesse – a trademark of Savage Wines. Duncan prefers to pick slightly earlier and the use of whole clusters where appropriate results in wines of great personality and freshness. The Savage White is typically a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Chenin Blanc from Kaaimansgat, Villiersdorp and Piekenierskloof. A portion of the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation before being aged for 10 months in old 500-litre oak barrels. From the 2018 release, the Savage Red will be 100% Stellenbosch Syrah. This decomposed granite vineyard is farmed biodynamically. Typically, the grapes spend two weeks on their skins with 50% whole-bunches used before spending 13 months in 500-litre barrels and a further 9 months in 3,200-litre conical foudre.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-01T17:42:15-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-19T16:07:46-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_South Africa","NK1802","Other_Wine","Producer_Savage","Region_Western Cape","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Rare Red Blend"],"price":247900,"price_min":247900,"price_max":247900,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42791108149386,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2020 | Savage | Red","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":247900,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/101.jpg?v=1676840957"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/101.jpg?v=1676840957","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2020 | Savage | Red at CaskCartel.com","id":24255485280394,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"width":600,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/101.jpg?v=1676840957"},"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/101.jpg?v=1676840957","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2020 | Savage | Red\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine displays a gloriously perfumed aromatic profile that rises out the glass effortlessly to reveal expressive notes of lavender, sweet lilies, ripe red plum, stewed mulberries and strawberry compote before singed sandalwood, dried rosemary and thyme herbal nuances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Savage\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2020\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Rare Red Blend\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e South Africa, Western Cape\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine displays a gloriously perfumed aromatic profile that rises out the glass effortlessly to reveal expressive notes of lavender, sweet lilies, ripe red plum, stewed mulberries and strawberry compote before singed sandalwood, dried rosemary and thyme herbal nuances.
