About enterprise
Glen Carlou, Company
A warm welcome to Glen Carlou, situated in the heart of South Africa’s scenic Paarl Valley. The warm, dry summers and cold, wet winters of this area combine with an exciting variety of slopes and the riches of our soils to create unique winegrowing conditions.
Glen Carlou was established in 1985 and since 2003 has been successfully owned and run by Hess Family Estates.
To harness our farm’s vast winegrowing potential, our vines are meticulously selected in terms of rootstock and clone, while every variety is carefully chosen for its compatibility to the terroir. Yields are kept rigorously low, ensuring that nature’s gifts are distilled in the flavourful grapes that we harvest. And in the cellar our winemaker Arco Laarman and his team join forces with nature to create three distinctive wine ranges.

This Zinfandel is a special bottling of only 10 225litre barrels. In doing this, the winemaker wishes to show the exquisite balance of tannin as well as the luscious rich and ripe fruit that the grape is capable of producing on Glen Carlou.

The name of this wine is a tribute to our winemaker, Arco Laarman. Known to his friends as Arc's, he has also been given the nickname the Arc Welder by the staff at Glen Carlou. So, when Arco suggested he would like to make a sweet wine, the name of the wine was decided as The Welder!
