Vilafonté Series C

The Vilafonté Series C is a classic Bordeaux blend from South Africa. A red wine of the highest quality that represents the perfect work of the Vilafonté crew. Not many wines of this type make it to the wine Olympics, and the Vilafonté Series C is one of them.

In the glass, it presents itself with a dark red-black color that fades to a light ruby-red rim. The nose is spoiled by a multi-layered palette of aromas. Notes of incense and violet blossom are surrounded by delicious black plum, fresh blackcurrant and boysenberry. After some time in the glass, subtle hints of sandalwood, fine tobacco and juicy juniper emerge. The carefully selected Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec grapes are vinified with the utmost care to perfectly preserve their unique aromas and complex structure. On the palate, the Vilafonté Series C is wonderfully lush with silky tannins. The intense fruit adds great dimension to this elegant and balanced red wine.

The Vilafonté Series C can be enjoyed very well when young, but develops additional complexity and length as it matures in the bottle.

We recommend decanting the wine at least 2 hours before drinking.

Spier Frans K. Smit Red
Every vintage of Spier Frans K. Smit Red is a work of art. The vines for the blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot all come from the western and north-western slopes of the Helderberg in Stellenbosch. Decomposed granite soils there store water well, which leads to slow maturation and increased mineral complexity. The area also benefits from the cooling effect of the nearby Atlantic Ocean.The winegrowers invest a great deal of time and care in each individual vine. After harvesting by hand and carefully packing the grapes into small 10 kg crates, they are hand-picked, crushed and pumped into a mixture of 500 l barrels and small steel tanks, where the juice remains on the lees for 3 - 6 weeks. The wine is then transferred to small French oak barrels for a maturation period of around 24 months.Winemaker Frans K Smit, after whom the wine is named, selects the best blends from the barrels, which then continue to mature in the barrel for a further 6-8 months. Each barrel of the limited, internationally sought-after red wine is personally made by him.The Spier flagship impresses in the glass with its deep and vibrant ruby red color. On the nose, there are notes of cigar box, berries, cherries and nuances of mint. The Cabernet Franc brings subtle richness, sweet fruit and creaminess to the palate, while the Petit Verdot brings balance and structure. The red wine is complex and dense in structure, with a silky, medium palate and a soft, long finish. The tannins are firm and assertive on the one hand, but also round, soft and elegant.The balance and refined elegance of this blend harmonize well with meat dishes such as rib-eye steaks, roast beef and smoky grilled steaks.
