Description and Reviews:
Vin de Constance today is one of the world's greatest sweet wines.

First produced over 300 years ago as 'Constantia', Kings vied for possession of this wine; Louis Philippe sent emissaries from France to fetch it; Napoleon drank it on the island of St Helena to find solace in his lonely exile; Frederick the Great and Bismarck ordered it; Charles Dickens' character Edwin Drood found support in it and Jane Austen recommended Constantia for its "healing powers on a disappointed heart".

Golden and bright in colour with aromas of marmalade and nutmeg on the nose. The palate is fresh and creamy with a rich sweetness that is complimented by good acidity, bringing the wine into perfect balance and ending with a lengthy and vibrant finish.
