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
The Glass Collection Syrah has a wonderful bright and rich colour with deep purple undertones. The aromatics of the wine are an intriguing mixture of both floral tones with spicy fruit. The palate expresses white pepper spice, spicy plum and dark berry all supported by a fine velvety texture.
Food Pairing
Game, ribs, beef and spicy sausage.
