Beau Constantia
Beau Constantia is a boutique winery high above the Constantia Valley, with spectacular views of False Bay and the surrounding vineyards. The winery is situated on the steep slopes of the Constantia Nek, where the vineyards are planted at altitudes of up to 350 meters above sea level. This special location produces wines with exceptional freshness, elegance and expressiveness.
After a devastating bush fire in 2000, the area was replanted with great care – today the estate grows grape varieties such as Syrah, Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. The focus is on sustainable and natural cultivation of the vineyards in order to develop the full potential of the terroir.
The wines of Beau Constantia are the result of meticulous craftsmanship and an uncompromising quality philosophy. Each vintage is produced in small quantities and reflects the unique interplay of climate, soil and winemaking skills. The iconic cuvées bear names such as Lucca, Cecily or Pas de Nom and impress with their depth, structure and elegance.
The proximity to the ocean provides cool breezes, which ensure a long ripening period for the grapes, especially in the hot summer months – ideal for fresh acidity and complex aromas. The red wines are mainly matured in French oak barrels, whereby care is always taken to keep the fruit in the foreground.
