The white wines of Waterford Estate are single vineyard wines while the red wines are made and blended to reflect the terroir of the Estate. The Waterford label was launched in 1998 with a Cabernet Sauvignon and a Sauvignon Blanc. The Chardonnay was added a year later. In 2004 the vineyards and property was registered as an estate and the labels were changed to Waterford Estate.

Description:
Intense aroma of Cedar wood, cigarbox and cassis, the palate is tighly structured with a classic dry Cabernet Sauvignon finish. The 2008 vintage shows a lightness in extract with a fresh midpalate, a vintage that will age gracefully, yet can be appreciated in youth.
