Description

Recently taken out of Berry Bros bond. Have consumed two so far and they're delicious. Still packaged and sealed in it's paper wrapping. 2010 currently retailing on Wine Searcher at £250!!! Hard to get such an old vintage here in the UK.

Contender for the best Bordeaux blend coming out of South Africa. The Series C 2011 is one of the most concentrated wines Vilafonté has grown, with a deep black colour & an expressive nose; leading with currants, crème de cassis, liquorice and graphite. This vintage has equal parts preserved black fruits and minerals, & beautiful espresso roast and mocha from well-integrated oak. The wine has weight and power, yet with a majestic richness, great fruit purity and incredible elegance. The Series C 2011 will reward both as a young wine and in the future, as it matures in cellar.

Twenty-two months in eighty-seven percent new French oak barriques, with the balance in older French oak.Series C 2011 consists of fifty-one percent Cabernet Sauvignon, twenty-six percent Merlot, fourteen percent Malbec and nine percent Cabernet Franc. Twenty-three barrels produced.
