Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
EIN CONSTANTI |
Bright pale straw colour. Intense, fairly complex, initially rather leesy, youthful, slightly spicy, grassy, lemon-apple fruit with some green peppercorn notes. Very dry, medium bodied, tangy, grassy, very slightly spicy, zesty lemon flavours with a lingering, bright, crisp, minerally finish. Perfect with seafood and especially oysters. Aged for 6 months on the lees in stainless steel, it has 13.1% alcohol, 1.7 g/L residual sugar and 6.6 g/L total acidity with lot number L21222 on the back label. and a screwcap closure. Will improve with another year in bottle. |

TASTING NOTE: Established in 1685, the Klein Constantia estate is one of the oldest and most respected producers of wine on the planet. Though the estate is known primarily for its luscious dessert wine, this example shows its prowess at crafting dry whites. The KC Sauvignon Blanc has tropical fruit flavours mingling with herbaceous aromas, with a crisp palate tying it all together. |
