Groot Constantia received world acclaim from Napoleon, Bismarck and King Louis Philippe of France who was the biggest single buyer of Groot Constantia wines.
A rich and ripe Merlot delivering aromas of black cherry and plum with a tocuh of tobacco and cedar. The ripe black fruits and subtle oak follows through on the palate, beautifully framed by fine tannins through to an elegant finish.
