Constantia Glen, the magnificently appointed boutique wine estate on the upper reaches of the Constantiaberg, offers some of the finest wine tasting experiences in the winelands just 20 minutes from the Cape Town city centre.

Known above all for their cool climate Sauvignon Blancs and Bordeaux-style reds, Constantia Glen now offers a wide range of tastings for visitors to their tasting room amidst the vineyards. In addition to their regular wine tasting of five bespoke Constantia Glen wines, visitors also have a choice of wine tasting experiences where these boutique wines are paired with fine artisanal cheese and charcuterie.

These tastings include the sumptuous Constantia Glen Saddle Rosé 2001 available exclusively from the tasting room. Think strawberries, salmon hues, floral scents and berry fruit. This bone dry Rosé is summer in your glass.

Tasting Constantia Glen wines while enjoying the sweeping views from the tasting room terrace is a rare pleasure indeed.

One of the jewels of the Constantia Wine Valley, Constantia Glen is open daily from 10h00 till 17h00 on week days and from 10h00 till 16h00 on Saturdays and Sundays. Look out for the Constantia Glen signs towards the top of Constantia Main road.
