About this Item
6 x 375ml bottles, comprising a vertical collection of Groot Constantia Grand Constance 2012 – 2017
The Grand Constance brand is an important part of World Wine Heritage and South Africa’s oldest wine.
Napoleon requested wines made at Groot Constantia whilst exiled on the island of Saint Helena from 1815 until his death in May 1821, and rumour has it that it was his favourite wine.
This rare collection offers the opportunity to experience this award-winning wine over six vintages.
Both the 2012 and 2013 Grand Constance have walked away with a top award from the “Monde Selection International Wine Contest” in Brussels. Adding to this success, the 2013 Grand Constance was also selected as one of the Top 100 SA Wines in 2016 and named as best in its class. The 2013 Grand Constance continued to rake in the awards with the highest possible accolade at the Decanter Asia Wine Awards. Surpassing Gold, Grand Constance received Platinum for being the Best South African Sweet Wine – achieving a rare 98 points out of a possible 100 and being classed as “exceptional”. The Grand Constance 2014 was awarded a Gold Medal and a position in the Top 10 Muscats in the World list at the 17th annual Muscats du Monde wine competition.
This wine is packed in a wooden box.
