GLEN CARLOU
Glen Carlou is an award-winning, 145 hectare estate situated in the beautiful Simonsberg-Paarl region of the Western Cape winelands. The winery was originally founded in 1985 by the Finalyson family, noted South African winemakers and vineyard owners, with the famed Hess family (owners of the eponymous California winery) taking the reins in 2003. In 2016, the winery was returned to local control as it was sold to a consortium of five South African families (the Pactolus Consortium). Pactolus has spent the intervening years investing significantly in the property, including an extensive replanting program to introduce drought-resistant rootstocks and new clones. Today, Glen Carlou produces a range sustainably-made wines from estate-grown grapes, across many price points. The wines all feature precision, block-by-block viticulture, a modern winery and the artistry and skill of winemaker Johnnie Calitz.
