Tangy green fruits, orange, hints of almond, marzipan, and honey with a long, dry finish. Somewhat floral on the nose. Lots going on on the nose and on the palate. $15-ish at Costco. — 7 years ago

Half-bottle. The wine was medium amber in colour and offered orange peel, apple, honeycomb, caramel, smoke, spices, sherry and a mouldy note on the nose. On the palate the wine showed orange, peach, apple, cane sugar, caramel, smoke, spices, creamy honey, some coffee, a hint of chocolate, sherry, mild black tea and a mouldy note, paired with medium-plus acidity, a creamy honey mouthfeel and very good length. Judged by this half-bottle the wine has just passed its plateau and started its slow journey on the downward slope. A good, medium-bodied Sauternes with lots of botrytis character. Drink now. 89 — 10 years ago

Peachy honey, and minerality. Integrated acidity and good structured. Paired perfectly with the slightly creamy squid ink fusilli with suckling pig confit and clams. — 6 years ago
One of the reasons we always make a trip out to Klein Constantia is for the Vin de Constance. Deep golden yellow with a fragrant nose of honeysuckle, honeycomb and white flowers. Heavy acidity (7/10) and full bodied. Well balanced and rich on the palate with notes of ginger, honey, orange marmalade. Not overly cloye which is nice. Long and lingering finish. Drink till 2037. — 6 years ago

Very sweet but not overtly cloying. Lots of custardy lemon & honey. Effervescent acidity in the end — 7 years ago
Beautiful fruit, hint of acacia honey (however not sweet) and a superb acidity. Super versatile. Bravo @Charles Puglia you rock! — 9 years ago
Honey on toast straight off the bat, walnut oil and a very light touch of twiglet makes me think this isn't in the greatest shape but shows some great complexity. In the mouth there is snappy red apple skin from the off though the mouthfeel is rather thin, sleek on the finish with plenty of class. — 9 years ago

This is a beautiful wine that's sweet but certainly not cloying. The color is deep golden and the nose offers dried apricots and honey. The sweetness is more pronounced on the palate, but a zippy acidity balances the experience perfectly. The wine finishes long and satisfyingly. — 6 years ago
