Constantia
The cradle of Cape wine, twenty minutes from the city
The cradle of Cape winemaking, granted to Governor Simon van der Stel in 1685, where the sweet wine of Constantia once reached the courts of Europe and a handful of estates now grow cool-climate Sauvignon Blanc on the slopes of the Constantiaberg, twenty minutes from Cape Town.
