Waterford Estate Cap Classique 2000

The white wines of Waterford Estate are single vineyard wines while the red wines are made and blended to reflect the terroir of the Estate. The Waterford label was launched in 1998 with a Cabernet Sauvignon and a Sauvignon Blanc. The Chardonnay was added a year later. In 2004 the vineyards and property was registered as an estate and the labels were changed to Waterford Estate.

With 5 years on the lees and just over 3 years on cork, this glass of bubbles is ready for the picking. It has a very fine mousse, a beautiful straw colour and loads of flavour on the palate. In the true Waterford Way we invite you to enjoy the celebration of flavour and finesse with us.
