Klein Constantia Vin de Constance

Richly viscous in the glass, with a burnt orange-gold hue, this wine exhibits youthfully fresh, floral Muscat aromas, and exotically spicy confectionary flavours on the palate. These rich flavours are well balanced by brisk acidity, and an attractive bitter orange twist on the clean, persistent finish. Drink now 2015.

Runny caramel on the nose, and a lovely amber hue in the glass. Roasted nuts, musk, very lengthy black treacle finish and orange and quince fruit - the fruit is definitely past its first flush, though the wine is still very much alive. 17/20, Jancis Robinson

These historic vineyards were first planted in the late 1600s as part of the original Constantia Chosen for its soil of decomposed Table Mountain granite, and its cooling sea breezes from both the Atlantic and Indian oceans, these vineyards provide the perfect terroir for premium winegrowing.
