Tasting Note

The Series M 2017 displays a dark mulberry hue, with inky depth. Attractive in its subtlety, this wine displays pure, elevated aromas of cranberry, ripe raspberry and sour cherry fruit. The aroma palette is further nuanced by vanilla, pencil shavings, cedar and toasty baking spice. Finally, fragrant Lilac invokes a delicate floral headiness. Lean and poised on entry, a fine core of acidity supports its succulent mid-palate. The tannins are fine-grained and velvety, adding plushness. Nothing is rushed with this wine. It continually builds in intensity, showing fullness of body and a long finish of blue fruit. Series M 2017 is quietly assertive. Although immediately engaging, cellaring will reward the patient collector.

Product Notes

Vilafonte Series M wine is a sophisticated South African blend that effortlessly marries the richness of Merlot with the vibrancy of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. Its seductive palate presents opulent flavours of dark fruits, supported by undertones of cocoa, vanilla and rose petals. Resilient notes of black cherry, plum, and dark chocolate mark the well-rounded finish. Enhanced by 16 months in French oak barrels, this red wine offers a depth and complexity made irresistible by silky tannins. The Vilafonte Series M is an elegant choice for those desiring a refined, full-bodied wine filled with captivating nuances and enduring impressions.
