Winemaking and Maturation
The 2011 vintage marks the end of an era in Klein Constantia’s history, however it also signifies an exciting start to a new journey for the estate. Our vision for this vintage was to balance the unique style of Vin de Constance with a rejuvenating freshness.
This vintage was said to be a tough year due to a dry and hot harvest, yet this was favourable for the maturation of the Muscat de Frontignan grapes creating perfect raisining and concentration of fruit.
Tasting Notes
Wonderfully bright on both the nose and palate. Concentrated flavours of apricot and orange zest with aspects of frangipani flowers abound. Mouth filling yet clean and focussed, the wine tapers into a rich luscious finish.
