Glen Carlou 'Grand Classique', Paarl South Africa
Readers rated this wine:
Delicious, complete, generous.
This classic Grand Classique blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Malbec, Merlot and Cabernet Franc offers excellent consistency but this 2016 really stands out. Velvety aromas of black raspberries, cassis, vanilla, licorice, cola spices and purple flowers lead to a palate that is supple with generous fruit. Plush black fruit, exotic spices, and mocha, which trail across the finish. Balanced and delicious with silky tannins this is a complete wine, delicious to drink, and utterly pleasing.
Pair: Smoked eggplant, grilled meats, aged cheeses, hearty stews and pastas.

Glen Carlou 'Grand Classique', Paarl South Africa
Readers rated this wine:
Succulent, styleish, classic.
This classic Grand Classique blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Malbec, Merlot and Cabernet Franc offers consistency. Expect nicely woven aromas of wild black berries, smoked plums, toasted spices and botanicals, black peppercorns and rich dark chocolate. It is fresh; flavours of graphite, dry earth, tobacco and rich cherry/plummy flavours dominate the palate.
Great posture, style and balance.
Pair: Smoked eggplant, grilled meats, aged cheeses, hearty stews and pastas.

Glen Carlou Chardonnay, Paarl, South Africa
Readers rated this wine:
Golden and toasted with hazelnut apple pastries, grilled lemon, brown spice and vanilla aromas that morph into nutty and spicy flavours. It has a toasty character which is balanced with yellow apples and balanced acidity. Lengthy and fresh, this is a Chardonnay for Chardy lovers.
