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.
Description
Distinctive fresh citrus characters, green apple and pear notes are evident on the nose and palate. An extended and elegant aftertaste is supported by crisp acid and finely grained tannins. The barrels made from oak treated in the water-bending method prepares the oak for toasting in a way that results in a softer mouthfeel
Food Pairing
This Chardonnay pairs well with salmon and trout, goats cheese souffle, or cauliflower centered dishes
