Nestled in the heart of Constantia Valley, Constantia Glen is an ideal destination for wine-tasting and dining. The venue sits on a 60-hectare estate with towering mountains and sloping vineyards, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the valley. The estate is divided into a series of intimate spaces that create a civilised, unhurried, and intimate atmosphere.
Wine-tasting and Dining at Constantia Glen
The venue offers an extensive collection of award-winning cool-climate sauvignon blanc and Bordeaux-style red wines available for wine-tasting. The wine-tasting happens in the stylishly converted stables and costs R90 for four wines and R120 for seven wines.
After the wine-tasting, settle down in the restaurant for a light dinner. The menu has five sections:
– Platters
– Flammkuchen
– Mains
– Salads
– Dessert
It caters to different tastes, including Vegan, plant-based, meat-heavy, and classic options. The most popular dishes include seared beef fillet, beer-battered kingklip, and slow-roasted lamb shank. The dishes are best paired with the estate’s award-winning wines, available from R60 per glass.
