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

Glen Carlou

Glen Carlou Vineyards is minutes away from the university town of Stellenbosch and less than 35 minutesโ€™ drive from Cape Town. Situated in the Simonsberg-Paarl region of South Africaโ€™s Western Cape, our estate was transformed from being a dairy farm in 1985 to a wine farm. Walter Finlayson acquired the property known as โ€˜Len Carlouโ€™. He not only enhanced the name but with his affinity for Burgundian wines, the first vine plantings were those of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. After a 13-year period of ownership by the Swiss based Hess Group, Glen Carlou transferred back to local ownership in 2016 when a South African family consortium purchased the estate.
