Experience the legendary Waterford Cabernet Sauvignon, an iconic Stellenbosch red from the celebrated Helderberg Mountain slopes. Waterford Estate’s unique granite-based soils and cool ocean breezes craft a wine of profound complexity and exceptional aging potential. Winemaker Mark le Roux focuses on expressing the pure terroir of this world-renowned region. This powerful Cabernet Sauvignon consistently impresses critics, making it a must-have for serious collectors and enthusiasts.
You will find a concentrated aroma dominated by dark blackcurrant fruit. Distinct herbaceous notes of fynbos and classical pencil lead-like nuances also appear. The palate is full-bodied and well-structured, showcasing vibrant acidity. Firm yet perfectly integrated tannins provide body and a long, savoury finish. The wine is aged in French oak to build complexity while preserving its core fruit purity. Waterford Cabernet Sauvignon pairs beautifully with classical red meat dishes like grilled rib-eye steak or seasoned roast lamb.
