The Constantia Glen Two is an ultra-premium South African white blend. It comes from the historic, cool-climate Constantia Valley. This wine is a classic Bordeaux-style blend. It expertly combines Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon grapes. The estate’s location, with its cool ocean breezes, ensures slow, optimal ripening. Winemakers ferment and mature the wine in oak barrels and clay amphorae. This unique process builds incredible depth and a luxurious, creamy texture. This is a wine built for both drinking now and extended cellaring.
The Constantia Glen Two consistently achieves top scores. Its impeccable balance and complexity receive high international praise.

The wine displays a light straw colour with a green hue. The nose offers elegant aromas of lime, green fig, and white blossom. Subtle notes of lemongrass and gun powder add complexity. The palate shows fantastic fruit purity and concentration. Zesty, bright acidity balances the mouth-coating, creamy texture. Expect flavours of pink grapefruit, vanilla, and stony minerality. Sémillon adds weight and richness. Sauvignon Blanc provides the wine’s fresh, elegant backbone.
This wine pairs beautifully with a range of dishes. Try it with salmon sashimi or grilled white fish. It also matches perfectly with creamy pasta and soft cheeses.
