Klein Constantia
Estate Sauvignon Blanc
Amazing...very similar to Loire Valley...but not enough mineral/acid...ripe/fresh, not tart on palate. Green bell pepper is apparent. Would be very difficult blind! Great stuff though...

May 11th, 2018This is a solid-ass Sauvignon blanc that hits in all the right ways without being overbearing or lacking balance. Perfect wine for a summer salad on a patio.

Oct 30th, 2016Just enough zip to take the edge off a hot day.

Jul 1st, 2016Powerful, restrained, rich. New world Loire-style. Reminiscent of Pouilly Fumé. On the palate it feels like this has been through (partial) M.L.F. Or extreme concentration from very low yields. Lower than expected acidity, not massively grassy or pyrazeney either. This would be tough blind! A very interesting, atypical bottle! I need to try their Vin de Constance!

17/20 (92/100) Развитой букет ароматов табака, грибов, подлеска, лимонного мармелада и сушеных яблок. Умеренная кислотность. Красивое вино. Неожиданно. #capewine2018
