Vilafonte Series M Paarl
A blend of 50% Malbec, 36% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc that highlights the plush, fruit-led style of wine produced from the grapes grown on a portion of the Vilafonté vineyard. High density planting of the vines results in lower yields and optimal concentration. This is a rich wine overflowing with ripe black-fruit character perfectly offset by the warmth of barrel influence and smooth well-integrated tannins. A showstopper wine that will continue to evolve over many years. 2023-2037 – LW

Vilafonte Series C, Paarl
oth the Series M and Series C wines are crafted by renown winemaker Chris de Vries. The 2020 Vilafonté Series C is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (58%), Merlot (24%), Malbec (10%), and Cabernet Franc (8%) that highlights the more muscular style of wine produced from the grapes grown on a portion of the Vilafonté vineyard. This wine offers the perfect balance of power and elegance with layers of blue and black fruit flavour supported by judicious oak and exceptionally well integrated tannin. 2023-2035 – LW
