Youthful in colour with a dark red core and garnet rim in the glass, the Constantia Glen Three presents itself with an intense and expressive bouquet of ripe blueberries, blackcurrants and dark herbs as well as complex notes of fragrant dried herbs, black peppercorns and fine raspberry perfume. On the palate, this Merlot-dominated cuvée also pampers the palate with nuances of dark fruit, remarkable elegance, velvety tannin and intense flavour nuances. This stunning opulence and concentration is wonderfully complemented by fine-grained tannins, a subtle earthy minerality and pleasant freshness, ending in a well defined and long-lasting finish. An opulent, powerful and full-bodied red wine blend of authentic old world style!

This first-class and full-bodied red wine cuvée was handmade with great care from Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. After the fermentation process was completed, the wine matured for 17 months in French barriques, of which 20% were new wood, 60% second wood and 20% third wood. Before bottling, the wine was lightly filtered but not refined.
