Glen Carlou

Nestled in the Simonsberg-Paarl hills of South Africa’s Western Cape, Glen Carlou has crafted premium wines since 1988. Our 145-hectare estate, rooted in ancient granite, quartz, and koffieklip soils, produces wines of purity and balance, most notably Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon. Beyond wine, we are a destination for art and cuisine, welcoming visitors worldwide. Led by Cellarmaster Johnnie Calitz, our flagship Quartz Stone Chardonnay, Gravel Quarry Cabernet Sauvignon, and Grand Classique embody refined craftsmanship.
