A piece of history from South Africa's vibrant treasure!
The production of this exquisite wine involved selective harvesting at various stages, focusing on the ripest berries to achieve an ideal balance of acidity, sugar concentration, and alcohol. This natural harmony allows for a seamless fermentation process, embodying a meticulous approach to winemaking. The Klein Constantia Vin de Constance spent three years aging in a combination of 50% new French and Hungarian oak, as well as French acacia wood, followed by an additional six months in stainless steel before bottling.
