About
Waterford Estate is situated in the picturesque Blaauwklippen Valley, in the world-renowned Stellenbosch region. We believe in the old adage of 'less is more'. There is nothing pretentious or ostentatious about the estate, rather the visual impact is one of a seamless whole, which complements rather than detracts from the surrounding natural beauty.

- The wine shows a classic Blanc de Blancs gold with a string of pearl-like bubbles rising elegantly through the glass.
- Our Cap Classique is not rushed; it is a wine whose craft is patient and precise, accumulating a total of six years for its secondary fermentation.
- The nose opens with a rush of brioche, followed by rich apricot and stone fruit aromas underpinned by a subtle orange rind character that slowly becomes more prominent as the wine lingers in your glass.
- On the palate, a soft, integrated bubble captures attention, carrying flavours that follow seamlessly from the nose.
- The extended maturation contributes to both texture and depth, with the mousse creating a refined creaminess.
- As the wine evolves under cork, it will continue to reveal layers of richness and complexity, the brioche and nutty elements taking centre stage in a finish that is both luxurious and enduring.
- Waterford Blanc de Blancs Cap Classique is a distinguished wine with a mineral backbone, classic brioche notes, and a fine bubble structure, available exclusively on allocation
- Enjoy on its own as an aperitif or pair with cheese platters or oysters.
