VILAFONTÉ »SERIES C«

Cellar for 15 years or more. Decant for up to an hour before serving.   Founded in 1997 by a
trio of talented wine-makers  Vilafonté winery produces some of South Africa's highest-quality
wines. It is located in the Simonsberg Mountains  an appellation with a bona fide claim to
fame. The oldest soil in the world can be found here  providing an ancient foundation for
stellar vines.   Vilafonté grapes are sourced exclusively from vineyards owned by the winery.
Early in the winery’s life  wine-maker Zelma Long realised that their vineyards gave rise to
two different styles of Bordeaux blend- the first was big and powerful  giving rise to Series
M. The second was smoother  juicy and well-rounded - this is Series C.  Series C is a playful
blend  a mixture of Cabernet Sauvignon  Merlot  Malbec and Cabernet Franc. While it is dry and
full-bodied  it shows definite hints of sweetness in its profile. The nose is packed with dark
fruits  cassis  black cherries and plum. A mouthful will reveal similar fruits  with deeper
notes of cedar  liquorice and a green botanical edge. The wine spent almost two years ageing in
French oak barriques and has plenty of time to develop further in the bottle. Series C will be
great company for rarer birds  such as duck  or rich tomato-based dishes.
