Constantia Glen
Constantia Glen sits in the Constantia valley, Cape Town's oldest wine region, where cool maritime breezes and mountain slopes create conditions for refined reds and whites. The winery's portfolio centers on Bordeaux varieties: Three, a Merlot-led blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, and Five, a more complex assemblage adding Malbec and Petit Verdot to that core. Both have drawn attention from Wine Spectator, Wine Advocate, Decanter, Wine Enthusiast, and Falstaff. Two Blanc, a white blend of Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc, rounds the range. The valley's terroir—ancient soils, afternoon shade from Table Mountain's eastern face—favors wines of structure and restraint, qualities evident across the estate's output.
