Bright and strawlike in appearance. Leading with intense aromas of blackcurrant, buchu and fynbos, both the nose and palate are immediately engaged and enticed by complex layers of stone fruit and oyster shell flavours. The palate is textured with a vibrant acidity. Elegant and fresh, the wine concludes with a long mineral finish.
Since it was planted, the “Perdeblokke” has yielded grapes of the highest quality giving us a distinctly unique Sauvignon Blanc, which prompted the decision to produce the first vintage of this ‘single vineyard’ wine in 2005. It is only made in years of exceptional quality
In 1685 Constantia was established as a wine region in South Africa between False Bay and Hout Bay by the Governor of the Cape, Simon Van der Stel. The perfect location for cool climate wines, it was here that the first Muscat de Frontignan grapes in the Constantia Valley were planted, thus beginning the legacy of one of the world’s most famous wines. Klein Constantia’s Vin de Constance was prized by leaders and aristocracy throughout 18th Century Europe, and today is considered possibly the world’s greatest natural dessert wine.
