Groot Constantia, the oldest Wine Estate in South Africa, has emphatically entered the Cape Brandy fray with style, finesse and one very fine VSOP.

It is one of the more splendid wine locations in the Cape, Long sprawling driveways, cobble brick paths, lush green lawns and a panoramic vista that stretches 180 degrees over the southern suburbs, and across False bay from tip to tip. Groot Constantia, one of the oldest in the country, have been doing it for years. 332 years to be exact. And back in those days, it wasn’t just wine produced here, but as early as 1734, brandy too.
