Klein Constantia, Estate Red, Cape Town WO District, Constantia Ward, South Africa 2018
64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Petit Verdot, 17% Merlot
These historic vineyards formed part of the original farm Constantia, whose legendary wines were sought-after by the 18th and 19th century European aristocracy, requested by Napoleon, and praised by Dickens and Jane Austen. Lying in this fertile valley on the narrow Cape Peninsula, the vineyards are favored by a cool and gentle maritime climate, creating near-perfect conditions for premium wine growing. Harvest at optimal ripeness, this estate blend showcases Klein Constantia red wine at its best.
The Estate Red boasts a lively nose with rich dark fruit from ripe plums to blackcurrant balanced with a perfume of elegant oak spice. The palate is refined with delicate red fruit backed up by well integrated tannin that allows for a long savory finish.
