Waterford Elgin Pinot Noir 2012 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Elgin
R650
'Juicy bright cherry & berry fruits on 2012. Gentle, ‘feminine’ wine. Light bodied & ephemeral but with some charcoal/smoke nuances. Needs a bit more depth & concentration.' – Platter's Guide, 3.5*
'Clean and soft bitter wild cherries, earthy notes and cedar wood are leading aromas in this wine. The tannin structure is medium, tight and extremely well balanced for this elegant wine. The fine balance of this wine allows for early consumption as wells as laying it down to age for 4-7 years.' – Winemaker

| Producer information | The Waterford Estate is located in Blaauwklippen Valley in Stellenbosch. Of their 120-hectares, only half is plated with vines to allow for the preservation of the natural fauna and flora found on the estate. Waterford is owned by the Ord Family with Kevin Arnold as the Cellar Master and Managing Director. Decades of experience at Delheim and Rust en Vrede led Kevin to the prime Waterford Estate on the slopes of the Helderberg, where after much research, he planted a basket of Mediterranean varieties. |
