Vilafonte
Vilafonté is a Stellenbosch wine estate recognised for producing some of South Africa's most sought-after Bordeaux-style red blends. Best known for Series C and Series M, the winery combines meticulous vineyard selection with a long-term approach to crafting wines built for both immediate enjoyment and extended cellaring.
Description
The Series M 2015 exhibits plummy hues with an inky red-black colour. The wine leads with rich fruit characters of red plums, cherries and blueberry confit . Overtones of thyme and sage lead to a more savoury beef bouillon note, perfectly offset by warm and enticing hints of chocolate, oak and brioche. Oak aromas are well integrated and support a rich core of concentrated fruit and Peony floral notes. On the palate, Series M opens with succulent richness, with a fleshy, mouth-watering core, leading to exceptional concentration and length of fruit on the finish. It shows both finesse and intensity, eliciting plushness on the palate.
Food Pairing
Pair best with hearty, flavorful, and fatty meat dishes.
