This surfer-turned winemaking maestro 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. Today his wines are in huge demand.
The 2025 Salt River is made from three old bushvine Sauvignon Blanc parcels in Stellenbosch. Named for the trendy area of Cape Town that Savage Wines calls home, it’s bursting citrus zest sprinkled with gooseberries, elderflower, tangy starfruit, passionfruit and pomelo and its pith. With icy cold Atlantic sea spray freshness this cuvee gets better with each new release.
