Product information "Vilafonté Series C 2021"
The Vilafonté Series C pours into the glass in a dark red colour and reveals a wonderful bouquet with intense aromas of violet blossom, plums, fresh blackcurrants and blackberries. A hint of sandalwood and tobacco rounds off the first impression perfectly. Silky soft tannins caress the palate, accompany the expressive fruit flavours and linger for a long time. The elegant and well-balanced blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (57%), Merlot (26%), Malbec (10%) and Cabernet Franc (7%) matured for 22 months in French oak and is a beautiful red wine to accompany savoury, dark meat or game. As only 67 barrels of this vintage of Vilafonté Series C were produced, it is definitely worth savouring this red wine on its own.

Vilafonté – an American-South African Partnership
The Vilafonté winery is the very first American-South African experiment in the wine industry. The American Zelma Long, one of America's best-known winemakers, and the South African Mike Ratcliffe wanted to create something very special at the foot of Simonsberg Mountain. On the 42 hectares, the best wines are created with influences from both wine cultures. Vilafonté's winemakers concentrate on the cultivation of four noble grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Malbec.
Vilafonté with the Highest Quality
The name of the Vilafonté winery is derived from the type of soil on which the vineyards are located. This special clay and gravel soil is called ‘vilafontes’ and is one of the oldest soil types in the world. The well developed soil provides the best conditions for growing small and intensive fruits. These are, rounded off by the gentle processing of the winemaker, the reason for the outstanding quality of the Vilafonté wines.
Vilafonté Wine at the Highest Level
The Vilafonté portfolio is small but fine. The Vilafonté Seriously Old Dirt is a complex and successful red wine blend dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon and refined by Malbec, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The refined wine impresses with a pleasant texture and a multi-faceted aroma that combines fruity and spicy notes.
