Klein Constantia Wines

The Estate & Terroir

Klein Constantia is more than just a winery; it's a piece of South African wine history. Located in the Constantia Valley near Cape Town, the country's oldest wine region, the estate benefits from cool breezes off the Atlantic Ocean. These ideal conditions, combined with granite soils, create a perfect terroir for aromatic grape varieties. Klein Constantia is known worldwide primarily for reviving the legendary sweet wine of Constantia, which was already famous in the royal courts of Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Wine Lines in the Assortment

The centerpiece of the range is undoubtedly the Vin de Constance, an opulent sweet wine made from Muscat de Frontignan with unparalleled complexity and longevity. But Klein Constantia also demonstrates world-class skill with its dry wines. The Estate line offers outstanding single-varietal wines like the mineral-fresh Sauvignon Blanc and the elegant Chardonnay. Special bottlings such as the Metis Sauvignon Blanc or the single-vineyard Perdeblokke showcase the full diversity of this grape. The portfolio is rounded out by the fine Cap Classique Blanc de Blanc, the charming Cuvée Anabel rosé, and characterful red wines like the Estate Red Blend and the powerful, Stellenbosch-grown Anwilka.

Food Pairing

The versatility of the wines allows for fantastic pairings. The Vin de Constance is a dream partner for blue cheese, foie gras, or fruit-based desserts. The crisp Sauvignon Blancs are a perfect match for seafood, goat cheese, and light salads. The Chardonnay accompanies poultry or creamy pasta, while the reds are ideal with grilled meats and hearty stews.
