The wine has a bouquet of wild bramble berry like fruit that is backed up by layers of all-spice and cinnamon. On the palate there are layers of summer berries that give way to a rich yet elegant mid-palate. The wine has a deceptive complexity that shows a lingering finish that has hints of Christmas cake!!

The aromatics are splendid: springtime perfumery, fresh ginger, peaches, apricots and honeysuckle. The palate is waxy and delicate yet with an underlying strength and focus. Aromas follow effortlessly onto the rich palate.

Full bodied style with intense colour and prominent varietal character, rich plummy flavours and a nice soft velvety finish.

Cabernet Sauvignon is the most suited varietal to Waterford Estate soils, making up 35% of the total plantings.
