Klein Constantia
The historic Winery Klein Constantianestled in the breathtaking Constantia Valleyis known for its deep connection to South Africa's winemaking heritage. It is a timeless producer of the legendary natural sweet wine Vin de Constance, which has enchanted palates across all continents for centuries and reflects royal esteem. The winery Klein Constantia continues this tradition to this day.
The vineyards of Klein Constantia are dramatically built into the mountainside and benefit from the unique climate imprint shaped by the influence of False Bay. These conditions give the grapes an exceptional character. This unmistakable terroir produces wines of elegance, structure, and a vivid sense of where they come from, reflecting the winery's commitment to capturing the essence of its origins.
As the leading grape variety, above all Muscat de Frontignan is mentioned, from which the famous Vin de Constance is produced. In addition to this sweet wine, the winery also produces excellent Sauvignon Blanc.

The Sauvignon Blanc from the Winery Klein Constantia shows aromas of grapefruit, kiwi, and lime on the nose.
"Only the juice, which is obtained through own pressure, is fermented in the tank. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes were fermented at four o'clock in the morning to highlight the specific characteristics of the individual vineyards."
"After fermentation, the Klein Constantia Sauvignon Blanc rested for another six months before the wine was bottled."

Grape Variety
Chenin Blanc is a widely cultivated, old white wine grape variety that has been grown in France (in Anjou – Touraine) since the 9th century. Compared to other white wine grape varieties, this variety is very productive. This leads to a very high quality of the white wine when reduced on the vine.
In South Africa, Chenin Blanc is the most widely grown white wine grape variety. The reason for this is primarily the very high diversity. For example, there are "wild-growing" vines (so-called Bush Vines) that are usually not irrigated. For this reason, the vines penetrate very deep into the ground with their roots to reach water. These Chenin Blancs therefore have a stronger depth and complexity.
The grape variety can also be aged very fresh and fruity in stainless steel tanks, developing into a very nice summer wine. Through the Aged in oak barrels, one obtains very complex and full-bodied white wines. The aromas of Chenin Blanc wines range from peach, apricot, and tropical fruits to honey and melon.
