Flavour Profile
Fans of crisp, cool-climate white wines will love the ocean-fresh Salt River Sauvignon Blanc from one of South Africa’s most exciting winemakers.
Duncan Savage has achieved a cult following – firstly during his 14 years at South Africa's 5-Star Cape Point winery and now, having branched out on his own. He crafts his wines on Swartland’s western coastline. It’s a perfect spot for his other passion, surfing, but, most importantly, the cooling influence of the Atlantic here helps make this region ideal for outstanding quality wines.
Then, of course, it’s down to the talent of the winemaker and with Duncan Savage, there’s plenty of that. Tim Atkin MW wrote in Decanter, “Duncan Savage thinks he hasn’t hit his full potential yet. Heaven help his rivals when he does.”
The 2025 Salt River Sauvignon is made with grapes from top vineyards in Stellenbosch and Darling. Thanks to the cool climate, it’s beautifully aromatic with fresh blackcurrant leaf and grapefruit flavours, alongside a stony minerality. A delicious partner for oysters, ceviche, grilled prawns or goat’s cheese.
