The Liberator Episode 38. ‘Knick-Knack Paddywhack’ Chardonnay 2021

13.5% abv

Vol- 75cl

Knick-Knack, Paddywhack’ … Give the dog a Beaune. Well, it had to be done

Episode 38 is a logical follow up to the hugely successful Episode 17, with which it shares the same title. After all, the play on words works equally as well with the classic white grape of Burgundy as it does with Pinot Noir…

The label, however, is something of a hybrid, since it shares an uncanny likeness to Episode 19 – ‘The Teeth of the Dog’. Indeed, this distinguished Chardonnay enjoys the same provenance, made by the extremely talented Johnnie Calitz in the cellars of Glen Carlou.

Followers of ‘The Teeth of the Dog’ should not be disappointed with the end result.

Good stock

Some say that The Liberator conjures up images of a disguised, cloaked superhero, charging around the Winelands rescuing bottles in distress. But this is no Superman. He’s just plain Rick; a Cape crusader perhaps, but one where cloaks are exchanged for a rather tatty Harris Tweed jacket and any superhuman powers are substituted by a supposedly blessed palate.
On his regular jaunts around the Cape, Rick is confounded by the number of great wines that are resigned to a tragic fate of being blended away or disposed of in bulk. It might be an occasional experimental batch, or possibly an interesting off-cut from some proud winemaker’s latest premium release. Whatever their provenance, it’s his mission as The Liberator to procure these precious vinous orphans and consign them to a better home.

Inevitably, each wine discovered by The Liberator comes with its own story; a tale of its untimely existence. You’ll find that every release has its testimony recounted, in bottle and on screen, as a unique and evocative Episode.
