Red and black berries, orange, fresh herbs, cured meat and white pepper on the nose. The palate has great fruit definition, snappy acidity and powdery tannins. Vivid, vital and intense. Alc: 14%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 97/100

| Producer information | Waterkloof are unassumingly elegant and sophisticated in their organic and regenerative approach to farming and winemaking. The Somerset West estate places a strong emphasis on minimal intervention and gentle handling to preserve the natural 'circle of life' in all areas on the farm, and this is reflected in their wines, which show a commonality of sophisticated restraint. Their white wines are particularly food-friendly and have received high acclaim internationally from critics such as Jamie Goode and the Independent Wine Review. |
