- 98 Punkte DECANTER, Georgina Hindle : Butterscotch, lemon patisserie and peach aromas. Pristine quality to the texture, lively and thrilling, this is a serious, opulent and powerful wine, more on the spiced, nuanced side with aspects of dried herbs, wood scents and bitter lemon and orange with a touch of honeyed lychee. It feels supremely complex and characterful. Sophisticated, layered and balanced with some minerality, a slight graphite
- 98 Punkte JANE ANSON: Vin de Constance takes the category of sweet wines to a new level, and this is another stunning success from them. Expect succulent pear, quince, apple, peach pit, tarte tatin, wonderfully seductive and opulent but never taking a single step over the line. Second year on the Place for this iconic wine. Winemaker Matthew Day.
- 18,5 WEINWISSER: Was für eine geile, traubige Muscat-Nase: Geröstete Nüsse, kandierte Aprikosen und Kumquats bis zum Abwinken. Erinnert an feinste englische Bitterorangenmarmelade, verführerische Fruchtaromatik, die aber total würzig und kräutrig unterlegt ist. Dicht, saftig und komplex, gleitet er bei mittlerer Viskosität und feiner Ingwer-haften Rasse und Würze über die Zunge, pfeilartige Struktur, vielleicht nicht ganz so nobel wie der 2018er, aber ein unverkennbar großer Süßwein mit klarem Herkunftscharakter. 18.520 2025 2040 (GL)
- 18 Punkte JANCIS ROBINSON, Tim Jackson: Barrel sample of the initial blend. Will be reblended after three years barrel maturation. RS 162 gl. Intense, powerful nose of apricot, orange and white flowers. On the palate, rich and sweet with a touch of spice, but a very fine line of acidity keeping beautiful harmony. Very long. This will fill out with more vanilla creaminess from longer maturation.
- 97 Punkte JAMES SUCKLING: Bright, medium to deep gold hue, showing focused and pure aromas of honeysuckle, fresh vanilla, lemon tart, dried mango, ginger and a hint of saffron. Certainly quite sweet, but not unctuous, with the natural, effortless acidity managing to balance the lushness. Intense, yet scented and naturally expressive. Persistent finish. You crave for a second glass if you drink it now, but you can also hold it for a decade in your cellar.
- 97 Punkte VINOUS, Neal Martin: The 2019 Vin de Constance is matured for 18 months in 500-liter Hungarian and French oak barrels, 50 new, followed ba another 18 months in oak foudres. The growing season saw more sunlight hours than previous vintages (2,998 compared to 2.588 in 2018 for example). It has an understated nose, almost Sauternes-like even i fit does not contain an ounce of botrytis. Subtle nutty aromas percolate through the wild honey and quince scents, wax resin and lanolin. The palate is medium-bodied and very pure. Disarmingly fine acidity, it is slightly Germanic towards the finish, with a hint of lemongrass lingering on the aftertaste. This is a superb Vin de Constance under the tenure of Matt Day that is a step closer to what you might confusingly call a non-sweet dessert wine. ;
