โ€œCabernet Sauvignonโ€™s vibrant red fruit and cassis combines with Cabernet Francโ€™s tobacco leaf and bell pepper set against the backdrop of Merlotโ€™s soft plum and vanilla spice frame. Explosive evolving aromas of ripe black berries, plush red fruit and cedarwood develop in the glass. The full bodied and complex palate is brimming with dark fruit and peppermint chocolate, alongside of integrated tannins and a luxuriant finish. A wine of great pedigree which was recognised as a 95-pointer Gold Medal winner in the Decanter 2022 Awardsโ€. Johnnie Calitz (Cellarmaster)

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.
