Information about "Constantia Glen Two 2023"
The Constantia Glen Two is a captivating masterpiece presented in a delicate pale gold, subtly shaded with fresh lime green. It reveals elegant herbal notes intertwined with inviting hints of lime, green fig, and floral undertones alongside soft oak nuances. This initial aromatic display is followed by a complex array of vibrant tropical fruits that enchant the palate. The refined mouthfeel, attributed to the Sémillon component, is balanced magnificently by a naturally vibrant acidity and crystal-clear fruit expression. This white blend, featuring 64% Sauvignon Blanc and 36% Sémillon, offers a dynamic intensity and exceptional fruit concentration. With a rich and luscious character alongside a finely textured mouthfeel, this wine does not disappoint. Its finesse and sophisticated balance are truly stunning.
Das Traubengut für diese geholzte Weißwein-Cuvée im Bordeaux-Stil wurde von den besten Weinberglagen der Farm per Hand gelesen, am ganzen Bund gepresst und in 600 l Fässern fermentiert. Nach Abschluss der Gärung reifte der Wein sieben Monate auf der Hefe in 600 l Fässern aus französischer Eiche, von denen 17% Neuholz ausmachten. Der restliche Anteil an Eichenfässern war bereits zweit- bis siebtbefülltes Holz. Die sorgfältige Auswahl der besten Fässer brachte einen Wein von unglaublicher Fruchtkonzentration und lediglich dezenten und subtilen Anklängen von Eichenholz hervor.
