The holiday season may be in the bright Cape air, but in the wine industry this is the time when the hard work really begins. Cape Town is expecting over two million visitors for the season, and with a large section of these having placed the winelands on their programmes, cellar guides and tasting room managers are going to be pushed to the limit. But we love it!

Recent visitors may have noted the emphasis we at Groot Constantia are placing on art. Not only the art of wine, but on the fine paintings of local artists we are exhibiting in our tasting room as well as in the Dungeons at Groot Constantia Manor House. With our fine wines, breathtaking scenery and historic buildings, good art definitely complements the Groot Constantia experience.
