The Glenelly Estate Reserve is the undisputed flagship of the Glenelly Winery. A top wine in Bordeaux style that leaves nothing to be desired. This cuvée combines the lush, rich character of Syrah with ripe fruit nuances and a pleasantly spicy hint of pepper with the classic nuances of Cabernet Sauvignon - blackberry, cranberry, cassis, fragrant cedar wood and floral undertones. Framed by a tight tannin structure, this red wine presents itself with wonderfully integrated oak tones. On the palate of outstandingly dense concentration and great complexity, this elegant pleasure ends in a fresh and long-lasting finish.

Treatment in the cellar

Hand-selected grapes were lightly crushed in steel tanks and then soaked in cold water for three days before spontaneous fermentation began with pumping over three times a day. The malolactic fermentation took place in French wooden barrels, after which the wine was allowed to mature in French oak for 18 months.
