Saboteur is not a typical bottle of wine. This is one that salutes those who master a craft and pays homage to an uncompromising and rebellious spirit. Whitespace Creative designed the packaging to be strong, bold, and respectful of the notes in the wine.
“The Saboteur is a master craftsman, dedicated to his art and proudly fighting to showcase the unique and authentic fruits of his hard work and labour. The Saboteur found it’s roots in the French industrial revolution, where the original Saboteurs protested the uprising of mechanisation and industrialisation through sabotaging the new machinery by throwing their wooden clogged shoes, called ‘Sabots’ into the machines. They were a group of people who despised the new industrial era that stripped craftsmen of their purpose.”
“Niels Verburg and his wife Penny are unabashed Luddites who apply a technology-resistant philosophy to their winemaking methods. They pride themselves on ‘farming conscientiously with minimum mechanization’ and aiming to make a wine that’s ‘as natural as possible, with little or no intervention.’”
