About this product
The revival of one of history's most famous wines — sweet Muscat from Klein Constantia's historic Cape Peninsula vineyards, made in the tradition that made Constantia wine the favourite of Napoleon, Bismarck and the courts of 18th-century Europe; showing extraordinary rose petal, apricot, orange blossom and honey character with balancing natural acidity that gives this dessert wine remarkable freshness and 20+ years of aging potential.
