Waterford Estate
Waterford Estate is situated in the Blaauwklippen Valley on the rolling slopes of the Helderberg Mountain in the well-known Stellenbosch region. Waterford Estate prides themselves in making Fine Wine from carefully selected grapes. Winemaker, Mark Le Roux and viticulturist, David van Schalkwyk both believe a Fine Wine displays the character of its cultivar and a true sense of place. A Fine Wine should reflect the length on the palate, has a complexity of flavours, internal harmony between aromatics and the palate, and balance between its essential components.
Description
As a true expression of the Elgin terroir, this Sauvignon blanc brings a purpose to your glass. With aromas of guava, passion fruit and Gooseberry’s all underpinned by a slatey freshness that almost jumps out of the glass. The palate is balanced with a fresh natural acidity offset by the finely textured palate adding to the lengthy mineral finish of the wine.
Food Pairing
Waterford Estate’s Elgin Sauvignon blanc, with its vibrant citrus notes and refreshing minerality, is a versatile partner for a variety of dishes. Its bright acidity complements seafood like grilled prawns and oysters, while the herbal undertones make it an excellent match for salads with goat cheese or asparagus-based dishes. This wine enhances the dining experience with its clean and lively finish, perfect for warm days or light, flavourful meals.
