WHY IS IT SPECIAL?

Grand Constance is steeped in legacy: once Napoleon’s favourite sweet wine, it is a modern revival of the legendary “Constantia Wyn” produced at Groot Constantia. The wine’s amber hue, lush Muscat fruit, and lengthy barrel ageing reflect the estate’s meticulous craftsmanship. Its status as a globally recognised Muscat—among the top ten Muscats in the world—makes it especially prized by collectors.

TASTING NOTES:

Nose: A rich bouquet of caramel and toffee, layered with dried apricots, peach, and delicate orange blossom.

Palate: Lush and luxurious, with sweet dried fruits (apricot, raisin), honeyed richness, and gentle floral lift, balanced by crisp, vibrant acidity.

Finish: Long, elegant, and moreish — a lingering hint of sweet spice, almond, and tropical peel underlined by freshness.

Product details

Groot Constantia Grand Constance is a historic and iconic dessert wine made from 100% Muscat de Frontignan, blending both white and red muscat varieties. This wine is crafted from late-harvested, sun-ripened Muscat berries, fermented on the skins for about a week, and then matured in oak barrels for 24 months to achieve depth and richness. The residual sugar is high (for example, 2015 vintage ~180 g/L), balanced by fresh, natural acidity.
