Product information "Beau Constantia Aidan 2016"
The Beau Constantia Aidan flows into the glass in a dark, almost opaque colour - a colour that is confirmed in the opulent bouquet of ripe dark fruit. On the nose, the bouquet is rich in black cherry aromas, followed by soft nuances of fine violet and lavender, wonderfully rounded off by the Syrah notes of pepper and plum. After this seductive fragrance experience, it is naturally expected that these complex aromas will continue on the palate - and they do so seamlessly. This full-bodied wine presents itself with a powerful yet polished character. Its taut tannins relax in the long, clearly defined and peppery finish. The harmony between lush, full texture and well-integrated minerality gives this wine a certain resonance - just like it is typical for an Aidan.

Die Trauben für diesen erstklassigen Tropfen wurden per Hand gelesen und Beere für Beere mit großer Sorgfalt für die weitere Produktion ausgewählt. Die Fermentierung fand in kleinen Gärtanks statt. Ein eher moderner Ansatz, in Kombination mit einer kürzeren Quellphase von lediglich 15 Tagen auf der Haut, hat eine hoch exklusive und erstklassige rote Cuvée im Neuwelt-Stil hervorgebracht. Ein Stil, der es besonders der Sorten Malbec und Petit Verdot erlaubt, mit herrlich reifen Fruchtnoten durchzuscheinen. Der Wein reifte 18 Monate lang in Fässern aus französischer Eiche, von denen 50% Neuholz, 35 % zweitbefülltes 15% drittbelegtes Holz ausmachten.
