The Savage White has become one of the estate's benchmark wines, demonstrating that Sauvignon Blanc can produce serious, textured and age-worthy South African white wine when combined with Sémillon and thoughtful oak maturation. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe style is a world away from simple, overtly tropical Sauvignon Blanc.

Its appeal lies in the tension between Sauvignon Blanc's freshness and Sémillon's texture, combined with restrained oak and the mineral character of coastal Western Cape vineyards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile enjoyable young, this is also a white wine worth cellaring. The combination of acidity, Sémillon and barrel maturation allows Savage White to develop more complex wax, lanolin, honey, dried citrus and savoury characteristics with bottle age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor customers who enjoy serious South African whites from producers such as Alheit, Rall, Thorne \u0026amp; Daughters or Sadie Family, the Savage White 2025 is a particularly compelling addition to the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mt-3 w-full empty:hidden has-[\u0026gt;_:empty]:hidden\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Savage Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45423889416215,"sku":null,"price":449.99,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/3026\/9496\/files\/Savage_White_2025_-_Mothercity_Liquor.jpg?v=1787304102","url":"https:\/\/mothercityliquor.co.za\/fr\/products\/savage-white-2025","provider":"Mothercity Liquor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
