Villiera
Villiera is a family run winery situated in the Stellenbosch region, producing a range of still wines and recognised as one of South Africa’s leading Cap Classique producers. It is a pioneering, innovative, quality wine company committed to preserving the environment. The cellar is solar powered and there is an on-going greening project (well over 100 000 indigenous trees have been planted in the past few years). Villiera is also committed to education and upliftment of their staff and their families. Villiera Wines is also home to the Villiera Wildlife Sanctuary (220 Ha) Visitors are guaranteed fantastic sightings of a diverse population of antelope, for example Gemsbok, Burchell’s Zebra, Kudu, Eland, Springbok, Bontebok, Giraffe, Wildebeest etc. as well as other small mammals and a huge diversity of birdlife attracted by the 12 dams and marsh areas. On a clear day one has a beautiful panoramic view of the mountains overlooking the Cape Peninsula.
Description
The 2016 vintage shows classic dark berry fruit with a hint of dark chocolate and violets on the nose. On the palate it is well balanced with rich, soft tannins. It can be enjoyed now but will keep for up to 10 years in good storage conditions.
Food Pairing
Best with nearly all red meat, including prime rib, New York strip and filet mignon.
