Glenelly Glass Collection Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 Stellenbosch
Producer: Glenelly
Tasting Notes:
Available in cases of 6 only A selection of premium single varietals from the world's most noble grapes, a great introduction to Glenelly. The wine develops a very complex nose with flavours of blackcurrant, cherry, a touch of spices and chocolate. The wine has a good tannin structure and perfect balance Independents Note: There is a lovely richness to the nose, sweet ripe cassis and black cherry. The black fruited mix is there on the palate, layers of flavour giving complexity, the fruit feeling ripe. Underpinning are some firm tannins but they are rounded there is nothing aggressive about them but they do give the wine good structure. Derek Smedley MW 2010

Welcome to Glenelly. We hope you will share our passion for these great wines of the Idas Valley in Stellenbosch. Why in 2003 did May de Lencquesaing, then owner of the famous Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande (well known classified growth in Bordeaux), purchase the Glenelly Estate? Why after 30 years in the wine business in France would she decide to plant vines in South Africa? Why would an 'older' lady invest in this 'younger' democracy and start a new adventure? Because she believes in the soil, the micro climate and the potential for quality wines. Because she believes in continuing the French heritage of wine making in South Africa going back more than three centuries. Because she believes in this great country and its people, and wishes to play a part in its economic development.
