We are thrilled to announce the first releases of our 2024 vintage wines, straight from the picturesque vineyards of the Wellington area. Both wines reflect our commitment to quality and our dedication to showcasing the unique flavours of the Wellington region. Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering Duke Wines for the first time, we invite you to savour the essence of our 2024 vintage.
This year, we’re extremely proud to introduce an exciting addition to the Duke Chenin Blanc. The 2024 vintage is now proudly adorned with the designation “Bush Vines” on its label, and forms a part of the Old Vine Project. Sourced from Certified Heritage Vineyards planted between 1978 and 1987, this Chenin Blanc boasts depth, complexity, and character. With luscious tropical fruit flavours, it’s a true testament to the rich heritage of our old vines. You wil not find a more affordable Certified Heritage wine anywhere in South Africa!

Our Duke Sauvignon Blanc 2024 is a real treat for anyone who appreciates a crisp and refreshing wine with aromas of freshly cut grass intertwined with bursts of citrus, passion fruit, pineapple and nettle. The palate has a zesty acidity dancing alongside green apple and white peach flavours. A distinct minerality adds depth to the wine, leading to a clean, lingering finish filled with notes of gooseberry and lime.
