Valentine’s Day rosé tasting with spectacular views at Constantia Glen




Constantia Glen Rose

Treat your Valentine to one of the jewels of the Constantia Valley and visit Constantia Glen for an unforgettable day of fine wines and breathtaking, outstretched views, just 20 minutes from Cape Town.

Adding a romantic twist, the tasting room at this lush wine estate will have a special pairing of the 2012 Constantia Saddle Rosé with succulent strawberries on Valentine's Day. Crisp and fresh with a rich, juicy palate, this sumptuous rosé is a gorgeous wine filled with a hint of strawberries, salmon hues, aromas of  red summer fruits and strong citrus notes that capture the freshness and minerality so often associated with fruit from cool-climate vineyards.

The full Constantia Glen wine tasting experience and irresistible platters of cheese and charcuterie will also be on offer, as well as special Valentine’s Day wine offers if you want to stock up your private collection. The recently launched 2012 Constantia Glen Sauvignon Blanc will be available at the wine club price of R85 when you purchase a case of six on the day. The 2008 Constantia Glen Sauvignon Blanc will be available at R75 and the 2012 Constantia Saddle Rosé at R500 per case.

Known above all for cool climate Sauvignon Blancs and Bordeaux-style reds, the Constantia Glen tasting room 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.
