Constantia

Rich rose gold in colour, just so much interest and depth on the aromatics. I always look forward to tasting this wine, and it never seems to disappoint. Dried apricot, caramel, patisserie, peach pit, sage, cardamon, sweet fleshy nectarine. This was a balanced vintage that was warm but not with the drought conditions of 2019, but it has plenty of sun-sweetened character, with lime zest twisting through the raising the tension and energy. Tasted twice. Matthew Day winemaker.

Inside Bordeaux

The 2020 Vin De Constance is 100% Muscat de Frontignan. Fragrant notes of rose oil, allspice, candied ginger, and sultanas jump from the glass, with touches of pear tart and aniseed. The palate is fantastically pure and sweet, with a racy line to balance and an epically long, perfumed finish.

Amatør

Dyp gyllen farge. Kompleks. Søtladet med aprikos, honning og krydder på duft og smak. Rik flott vin med iboende syrlighet og lang ettersmak av botrytis. Server litt avkjølt

WSET 2

Flott vin på nese med mye sjarm: det åpner med steinfrukt som aprikos og fersken, sammen med appelsin marmelade, søte krydder og kandisert sitronskall. I munnen vinen er bare dekadent, med godt over 170 gr/l av restsukker det er som å ha et fruktsalat i glasset: steinfrukt, tropiskfrukt, sammen med mynte og safran. Selv om vinen er veldig søt, den frisk syre balansere alt og gi en lettere følelse enn forventet til vin.
