Glen Carlou
Wine Estate, Zen Restaurant and Hess Museum of Contemporary Art, situated in the heart of South Africa’s scenic Paarl Valley
A warm welcome to Glen Carlou, situated in the heart of South Africa’s scenic Paarl Valley. The warm, dry summers and cold, wet winters of this area combine with an exciting variety of slopes and the riches of our soils to create unique winegrowing conditions.
Glen Carlou was established in 1985 and since 2003 has been successfully owned and run by Hess Family Estates.
To harness our farm’s vast winegrowing potential, our vines are meticulously selected in terms of rootstock and clone, while every variety is carefully chosen for its compatibility to the terroir. Yields are kept rigorously low, ensuring that nature’s gifts are distilled in the flavourful grapes that we harvest. And in the cellar our winemaker Arco Laarman and his team join forces with nature to create three distinctive wine ranges.
