Savage Follow the Line Cinsault 2024 is a standout red wine from acclaimed South African winemaker Duncan Savage. Unlike previous vintages, the 2024 release is crafted exclusively from old-vine Cinsault, grown on dry-farmed vineyards in the Darling and Western Cape region.
In the glass, it offers a vibrant expression of red fruits such as cherry, raspberry, and strawberry, complemented by floral hints of rose and violets, along with a touch of subtle spice. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, juicy, and beautifully balanced, with soft tannins, fresh acidity, and a refined mineral backbone.
This pure Cinsault represents the modern face of South African winemaking — moving away from heavy, extracted reds toward light, elegant, and terroir-driven wines with personality and finesse.
Perfect to pair with grilled vegetables, herb-seasoned dishes, roast chicken, or soft cheeses, it is a versatile wine for both casual enjoyment and fine dining.
Savage Follow the Line 2024 is ideal for collectors and wine lovers looking for a distinctive South African Cinsault that combines drinkability with complexity and age-worthy potential.
