Groot Constantia Constantia Blanc 2001

This is one of our most popular house-wines. Excellent value for money. It has a rich fruitiness and firm acidity, which adds to an extended aftertaste and dry finish. The Sauvignon Blanc gives you this ripe tropical fruit, herbaceous and green flavour.
Serving suggestion: Tuna salad, quiche, pate and seafood's.
