Groot Constantia’s Grand Constance is one of South Africa’s most exceptional dessert wines. With this noble sweet specialty, the country’s oldest winery continues the rich tradition of the famous Constantia wines. The long aging period and meticulous production process give the wine its distinctive depth and elegance, making it a striking example of South African winemaking artistry.
The Muscat de Frontignan grapes remain on the vine for an exceptionally long time and dry naturally. This results in an impressive concentration of sugar, aromas, and extract. After fermentation, the wine ages for 24 months in used oak barrels and then for another two years in the bottle. This elaborate aging process gives Grand Constance its remarkable complexity and unmistakable character.
In the glass, this South African sweet wine displays a luminous amber hue. The bouquet is characterized by aromas of dried apricots and ripe peaches. On the palate, the Grand Constance is concentrated and multi-layered, with lively acidity providing freshness and a harmonious balance. The long finish underscores the elegance of this exceptional dessert wine.
As a food pairing, Groot Constantia Grand Constance harmonizes superbly with fruity desserts, crème brûlée, or full-flavored blue cheese. It also showcases its full class when paired with foie gras or enjoyed on its own as the finale to a special meal. Its optimal serving temperature is 10 to 12 °C.
