Constantia Glen’s hearty goulash soup will bowl you over

MyPR: Constantia Glen’s hearty goulash soup will bowl you over:

Comfort your family with Constantia Glen’s famous Austrian beef goulash soup, a nourishing traditional cold-weather foil that’s hearty and rich in flavour.

Fostering the European heritage of the Waibel family, who acquired Constantia Glen in the late 1950s, this spicy beef and potato soup flaunts paprika as its signature ingredient.
The flagship Constantia Glen FIVE, a consummate blend of five Bordeaux grape varieties, stands up well to these bold flavours.

“Our heart-warming goulash soup needs a big, well-structured red wine to clean your palate and the Constantia Glen FIVE 2016 does this perfectly.” says winemaker Justin van Wyk.

The wine can be purchased online now at https://www.constantiaglen.com/order-wine/ for delivery to your door after the lockdown restrictions have been lifted.

Like the wine, the hearty Constantia Glen goulash soup is a real crowd pleaser. It’s filling, easy to make, and best served with fresh crusty bread to mop up even the last drop in your bowl.
