About this Item
1997 Vin de Constance
1 (1 x 1) 500ml
The re-creation of the legendary Constantia wine made in the 18th and 19th centuries, sought after by Napoleon, the aristocracy of Europe, King George IV and King Louis Philippe and recommended by some of France's most famous gourmands, Brillat-Savarin and Dumas. Renowned for decades of aging potential, the 1997 is a stellar vintage that can compete with the greatest sweet wines in the world.
