Constantia Uitsig Semillon 2010

Constantia Uitsig Semillon 2010 shows exceptional balance of fruit and oak. The wine may be appreciated for its rounded, lanolin-like quality and its honey and citrus with slight herbaceousness. The finish is long and lingering.

Risotto flavoured with mushrooms, parmesan and truffle oil. Prawns and black mussles. It pairs well with creamy Indian Korma and Vietnamese chicken curry.
