Sans Vin de Constance is a late-harvest style made from Muscat de Frontignan (aka Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains) grapes, without botrytis. 10% of the Muscat is picked early, to make a base wine at 12.5â€?3 % alcohol with good acidity. The remaining grapes are left to accumulate sugar, and leaf removal exposes the fruit to the sun, which helps raisin the remaining grapes. Then, picking takes place in three passages through the vineyard. Altogether, around 10% of the crop will be raisins. If the raisins have lots of sugar left in the skins, then the base wine is used to flush the flavour out.
