Glenelly
Winemaker Dirk and assistant Lehandri endeavour to make Glenelly wines as naturally as possible with wild yeast fermentation and little to no acidification. The team follows a minimal intervention approach to winemaking yet intensive sorting and care is taken when receiving the grapes. We use France’s most recognised coopers (mostly from Taransaud, Boutes and Sylvain) to ensure a gentle and precise elevage, preserving the identity of the terroir of Glenelly. Hygiene is of utmost importance in the cellar and a combination of both hot water and ozonated water is used for cleaning.
Description
Glenelly Estate Reserve is our signature red blend, based on the classic claret blend of the 1700's. This wine offers plenty of ageing potential. Expect aromas of plum and cherry. Flavours of mulberry and black currant leaf in the mid palate with hints of fresh herbs and rich tannins to support it all.
Food Pairing
Beef, veal and fine aged cheese.
