The 200-year old wine is the sweet and nectar-like Grand Constance 1821
An incredibly rare bottle of wine, once destined to be enjoyed by Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, is to go under the hammer at Christie’s later this month as part of the Cape Fine + Rare auction. The 200-year old wine is the sweet and nectar-like Grand Constance 1821, made in Constantia near Cape Town.
Napoleon was fabled to drink a bottle of the stuff every day and after his death in May 1821, his allocation was liberated for general sale. It’s thought that fewer than a dozen bottles of this vintage still exist and, with a reserve price of £5,000, this lot is expected to attract considerable interest.

While much of the South African wine industry was whingeing and weeping on the international and local stages about its problems and opportunistically assigning too many of them to lockdown (see Edo Heyns’s very relevant comments), and incoherently trying to cope without the representative leadership that is so much needed (as Michael Fridjhon argues) – all the time, a few groupings, as well as numerous wineries, were proceeding with dynamic strategies that bring honour to South African wine on the basis of quality and interest rather than on pathetic hard-done-by-ness.
