Groot Constantia Wine Estate is testimony of how one man's love for wine established South Africa's first wine farm in 1685. Napoleon's favourite wine originated from "Grand Constance" which is the French translation for Groot Constantia and these wines were produced in the family Cloete Cellar behind the Manor House at this estate.

Alive in literature and legacy, the wines produced here are also a testament to the rich African soil as they are crafted to perfection.
