In this episode, we look at a region that rose to fame centuries ago, a favorite of Napoleon, Louis XVI, and the Duke of Wellington: Constantia. Those famous sweet wines disappeared for almost a century, but today this small suburb of Cape Town is home to some of South Africa's leading Sauvignon Blancs, Bordeaux-style blends, and other wines...and yes, the sweet wines of the past have returned as well.
