NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This is a full-bodied, luscious sweet wine from Klein Constantia in South Africa.Its golden yellow hue is inviting and the nose is complex, with aromas of dried apricots, honey, marmalade and orange zest. On the palate, it is intensely sweet but also balanced with acidity and a hint of tannin. Flavours of marmalade and honeycomb fill the mouth, and the finish is long and lingering.
