Vilafonte Seriously Old Dirt Magnum

Vilafonte Seriously Old Dirt magnum edition, a 1.5 litre bottle, is particularly notable for its ageing potential and its ability to enhance the wine's complex flavours.

• Seriously Old Dirt displays a bright garnet-red colour
• This cabernet sauvignon lead blend initially greets with a vibrant expression of fruit. Unfolding with fresh plum, black raspberry, mulberry and ripe strawberry. These fruits beautifully intertwine with subtle spicey notes of shaved nutmeg and dried sage
• Palate entry is smooth, luxuriously coating with a silky texture from the fore-palate, broadening on the mid-palate and finishing with layered richness. A line of fresh acidity adds energy to this medium bodied wine. Soft, silky tannins are well integrated, allowing immediate enjoyment, while balanced structure will allow gracious cellaring

Matured for eighteen months with French oak. Seriously Old Dirt consists of cabernet sauvignon (eighty-eight percent), Malbec (eight percent), Merlot (two percent) and cabernet franc (two percent).

Due to its robust nature, it pairs excellently with a variety of hearty dishes. It complements grilled meats, particularly beef and lamb, as well as rich pasta dishes with tomato-based sauces. For a vegetarian option, consider pairing it with a mushroom risotto or a well-seasoned vegetable stew.
