Klein Constantia, Vin de Constance 1991
RRP £100
This wine glows in the glass, the burnished brown of a horse chestnut straight from the husk. Very deep nose redolent of old wood; unctuous, very fine. Amazing Porty palate – raisins and deep dried plums – and a tongue-tightening acidity gives it tremendous lift. Superb.
