Tasting Note

The Waterford Antigo 2021 is expressive and generous, opening with aromas of ripe red currant, subtle tobacco leaf and finely integrated oak. The palate is plush yet vibrant, with fresh acidity bringing lift and balance to its polished, layered structure. Supple, fine-grained tannins support sweet red fruit flavours through to a long, textured finish. Approachable in its youth, the wine also shows excellent ageing potential, with the promise of evolving towards savoury, dried fruit complexity and greater harmony over time.

Product Notes

Waterford Estate Antigo is a delightful wine that hails from the prestigious Stellenbosch region of South Africa. This red blend is a harmonious combination of Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, and Mourvèdre grapes, carefully selected and expertly crafted to create a wine that is both bold and elegant. The wine displays a deep ruby color with aromas of dark berries, herbs, and a hint of spice. On the palate, flavors of ripe blackcurrants, plums, and a touch of vanilla are balanced by smooth tannins and a lingering finish. Waterford Estate Antigo is a versatile wine that pairs beautifully with hearty dishes like grilled meats, stews, and aged cheeses. It is perfect for enjoying on its own or sharing with friends and family during special occasions. This wine is a true testament to the exceptional quality and craftsmanship of Waterford Estate wines.

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.
