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
The 2021 Chardonnay shows a pale gold signifying the youth of the wine. The nose showcases delicate yellow fruit, brioche, and a subtle toasty character all underpinned by the telltale citrus blossom of our Chardonnay. The wine is textured and elegant, with the minerality that adds balance and intrigue. The palate expresses a toasty oak character and nectarine fruit adding to balance and complexity.
Food Pairing
We’ve had the privilege of collaborating with world-renowned chefs over the years, and our Single Vineyard Chardonnay consistently pairs exceptionally well with cream and butter-based dishes, complementing and enhancing the wine’s texture and mouthfeel.
