June 18, 2023 - Not as good as the 2015. Marked lack of
Acidity that prevents it from a higher score. -

Lukter kraftig av fersken.
Tungflytende. Søtlig, men ikke stikkende søt. Smaken er også dominert av fersken. Bra med syre.
En god og spennende søtvin. -

August 12, 2021 - Groot Constantia Zoom tasting. Drank in Gabriel Standart.
Appearance is clear, pale intensity, amber gold colour. Thin legs.
Nose pronounced intensity, with aromas of floral blossoms, honeysuckle, orange marmalade, blood orange, sweet tangerine peel, caramel nuttiness. Developing.
On the palate, sweet, medium+ acidity, medium- alcohol, medium+ body. Pronounced flavour intensity, with flavours of sweet raisins, blood orange, marmalade, honey, caramel, nuts. Long finish.
Very good quality. Expressive heavenly nose. Good pleasing palate feel.
Wonder why it is slightly more expensive than the Klein Constantia Vin de Constance though?
