Savage Thief In The Night 2024 is a compelling Rhône blend showcasing the character of Grenache and Syrah from South Africa’s Swartland region. Hand-harvested from bush vines, the fruit underwent wild fermentation using 20% whole clusters. This wine presents a complex bouquet dominated by black cherry, plum, and savoury spice, underpinned by a mineral backbone from the vineyard`s schist soils. Savage Wines is known for its commitment to expressing terroir, with Duncan Savage placing an emphasis on sustainability and minimal intervention winemaking.

Vinous
The 2024 Thief in the Night is pure Grenache from sandstone soils in Piekenierskloof, spontaneous ferment, 50% whole cluster (less than in previous vintages) with two weeks on the skins, ten months in foudre. This has plenty of dark, almost sultry plummy fruit on the nose, touches of melted tar and cracked black pepper. The palate is medium-bodied with a powdery texture, beautifully balanced with an elegant finish that has a prickle of spice on the aftertaste. Neal Martin2nd October 2025
