Country / Region: South Africa/Stellenbosch

Drinking style: Tannic, well structured, dry

Grape type: Cabernet Sauvignon

A vintage which will be remembered for drought and heat. The lack of water resulted in light bunches with tiny berries, great for red wine colour and flavour. The heat also resulted in wines being lower in acidity. Red wines performed exceptionally well.
Tasting Note
Over two decades of producing this Estate wine, the wine is ever increasing in quality and becoming more consistent in expressing the terroir of the Helderberg Mountains. The 2018 vintage shows pure fruit and earthy notes complimented by classical pencil lead-like aromas and a typical dry tannin structure with a seamless balance to the finish. The vintage can be considered classical in style, with a tight tannin structure and fresh acidity. Being a drought vintage the stress on the vines was sure to create more concentrated grapes, packed with flavour and quality.
Pairing Suggestions
With the classical earthy and savoury characteristics of the wine along with the dry tannin structure. Classical red meat dishes seasoned with cracked sea salt pair well but also pairs well with other savoury dishes.

ABV 14.5%

Product Description

Waterford Estate was created through a very special partnership between two families who had a shared dream to create a wine farm where life is cherished, the seasons mark time and the fruit always reminds of blessings, abundance and the beauty of nature.
Waterford Wines was founded in 1998 when Jeremy and Leigh Ord purchased this prime Stellenbosch vineyard land (previously part of the Stellenrust Farm).
Kevin and Heather Arnold were responsible for identifying this unique site, planning the new winery and resurrecting the existing vineyards and orchards, and have been instrumental in developing Waterford into the showcase estate it is today.

This Cabernet Sauvignon has a dark crimson hue with vibrancy of youth, aromas of lead pencil, chalk and bitter cherry and cigar smoke, classically dry and tight structure back with dense tannins and unctuous fruit. A wine meant for classic Cabernet lovers that will be truly rewarding with careful ageing and cellaring.
