Information about "Klein Constantia Vin de Constance 2020"
The small Constantia Grand Vin de Constance presents itself in a glass of golden yellow colour and exudes a bouquet of aromatic citrus fruit, ginger and fresh nutmeg that bewitches the senses. On the palate, an elegant and well rounded pleasure experience with harmonious acidity and an incredibly creamy mouthfeel opens up. The aromas already absorbed by the nose also unfold on the palate. This full, rich and refreshing wine ends in a long and concentrated finish and gives pleasure of a very special kind.
A piece of history from South Africa's historically colourful treasure chest!

The production of this exquisite wine involved selective harvesting at various stages, focusing on the ripest berries to achieve an ideal balance of acidity, sugar concentration, and alcohol. This natural harmony allows for a seamless fermentation process, embodying a meticulous approach to winemaking. The Klein Constantia Vin de Constance spent three years aging in a combination of 50% new French and Hungarian oak, as well as French acacia wood, followed by an additional six months in stainless steel before bottling.
