Tasting Note

The wine shows aromatics of delicate violets, dark plum fruits and liquorice notes which has layered subtle notes of earthiness and leather spice, brought in by the Mourvedre component. The palate follows the aromatics of the nose with similar violet and earthy spice notes. The wine shows generosity for a vintage which is known for more elegant and finely textured wines. The tannins presented are soft and granular with a fruit-forward finish due to the use of strictly older barrels for ageing

About the Winery

Waterford Estate

Waterford Estate is a famous boutique winery in the hub of Stellenbosch wine region, South Africa. Established in 1998, it is an Eco-friendly and sustainable wine estate.

Waterford Estate, by Jeremy Ord, is born out of a love for South Africa's landscape and his passion for wine. In 1998, he purchased it and commenced with the plantation of vineyards on it in the rich soil of Helderberg Mountain.
Renowned designer Alex Walker also designed a winery that incorporates the natural landscape in its design. The winery leads into a beautiful estate that perfectly fits the mountain and vineyard surroundings.

Waterford Estate produces sustainable wine using water. The winery uses several eco-friendly techniques in an attempt to reduce environmental degradation. The estate applies a drip irrigation system to save water, and plants cover crops between the vine rows to avoid soil erosion.
