Waterford Sauvignon Blanc 2007 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Stellenbosch
R495
'There is a lovely hint of herbal fynbos and a touch of white stone fruit underscored by subtle hints of honeyed bottle age aromas. The colour is still impressively green laced, but it is the palate that is the real star; showcasing just a little of evolved viscosity on the palate with attractive rich fruit, long and layered ending with a saline and savoury freshness! Super impressive and ready to enjoy but at least another five years from being done with, if not longer.' – James Pietersen (Dec 2021)
'Rich and nicely defined, with lots of lemon verbena, straw, mineral and chamomile notes that race through the elegant, lengthy finish.' – James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 90/100
'Lively and elegant, this fruit-filled wine from Kevin Arnold is perfect for a gourmet meal in the summer. Fresh tropical fruit flavors like lychee mingle with a balanced acidity and impressive mouthfeel. Long finish.' – Susan Kostrzewa, Wine Enthusiast, 89/100

| 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. |
