Description
Facing mostly south to east, and reaching up from 70 to 343 metres above sea level, the higher slopes are some of the coldest in the Cape, thanks to fewer sunlight hours and a constant breeze off the ocean, just 10 kilometres away. Cooler temperatures result in an increase in concentration and flavour while preserving the acidity and pH.
They also create the ideal growing conditions for Muscat de Frontignan. As the berries are able to ripen fully before raisining begins, they are able to produce raisined fruit with remarkable intensity of flavour, as well as natural acidity.
Tasting Note: Aromas of citrus marmalade and frangipani abundant on the nose. Full bodied and complex, a good sugar to fruit ratio combined with a great acidity ensures the wine is in balance.
Origin: Constantia, South Africa
Blend: Muscat de Frontignan
