{"product_id":"waterford-antigo-2021","title":"Waterford Antigo 2021","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"423\" data-end=\"740\"\u003eWaterford Estate, set on the Helderberg slopes of Stellenbosch, is known for its focus on terroir expression and classical structure. The Antigo range is inspired by traditional Italian varieties, with Sangiovese planted in carefully selected soils that mimic the gravelly, well-drained conditions found in Tuscany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"423\" data-end=\"740\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"742\" data-end=\"1106\"\u003eThe estate’s philosophy centres on minimal intervention and site-driven winemaking. Grapes are hand-harvested, and maturation in oak is handled with restraint to preserve varietal character. With Antigo, the goal is not to replicate Italy, but to interpret Sangiovese through a Stellenbosch lens - balancing bright acidity, savoury detail, and refined structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"742\" data-end=\"1106\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1199\" data-end=\"1302\"\u003eColour:\u003cbr data-start=\"1210\" data-end=\"1213\"\u003eBright ruby red with a translucent edge, true to the varietal’s lighter colour profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1199\" data-end=\"1302\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1304\" data-end=\"1466\"\u003eNose:\u003cbr data-start=\"1313\" data-end=\"1316\"\u003eRed cherry and cranberry lead, followed by dried herbs, tomato leaf, and a subtle earthy note.
