Product information "Vilafonté Series M 2017"
The Vilafonté Series M presents itself in the glass of a deep dark black-red with plum-coloured inclusions and exudes a stunningly complex bouquet of red plums, cherries and blueberry confit, which is accompanied by hints of fragrant thyme, sage and spicy beef bouillon. Aromas of dark chocolate, oak wood and fine brioche round off these first sensations perfectly. Well-integrated oak wood aromas underpin the lush core of intense fruit concentration and fragrant floral notes. The palate pampers with a juicy opulence and a fleshy delicious core of remarkable concentration and length. A wine with finesse and intensity that inspires!

After the harvest, the grapes were selected with great care and the different grape varieties were vinified separately. Once fermentation was complete, the wine matured for 22 months in French barriques, 18% of which were new wood, with the remaining portion being made up of previously used wood.
