Klein Constantia
Muscat de Frotignan (Muscat Blanc a Petit Grains)
Vin de Constance
Constantia Ward, Cape Town District, Coastal Region, western Cape GU
- Vin de Constance is a naturally sweet wine, made with unbotrytised raisined grapes. It’s matured in oak barrels and is unfortified. Attention to detail is meticulous. The grapes are brought in in several passes, with low-sugar, higher-acid grapes first, then the super-sweet raisined berries
- Crop is reduced by half on the vines, then left to dry until late in the season, with little botrytis impact, if any. Late-harvest grapes are blended with fresh and aged in a combination of 50% new French oak, Hungarian oak, and French Acacia, with three years on the lees before racking, blending, and an additional six months in tank before bottling. Inaugural vintage 1986.
