DESCRIPTION
Glenelly Estate is a wine estate in Ida's Valley on the southern slopes of the Simonsberg Mountain in Stellenbosch, South Africa. Lady May is Glenelly’s flagship Estate wine. Elegant and complex, the wine develops flavours of blackcurrant, dark cherry, with a touch of graphite and delicate spicy plum. Fresh and vibrant, the evolution of the wine introduces flavours specific to Glenelly’s terroir. Deeply coloured and perfectly balanced, this wine displays an exquisite structure with velvety tannins. It will age quite nicely.
REGION
Stellenbosch
South Africa
Stellenbosch is arguably the most prestigious wine region in South Africa. Located in the coastal region of the Western Cape, east of Cape Town, it enjoys a Mediterranean climate tempered by sea breezes and sheltered by the surrounding mountains. Its varied terroir of granite, schist and sandy soils makes it possible to produce both powerful reds and elegant whites.
While Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux blends (with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot) built its reputation, Stellenbosch is also known for its refined Chenin Blanc, distinguished Chardonnay and expressive Syrah. Home to many iconic estates, the appellation remains a showcase of South African craft.
Recommended for you:
This Cabernet Sauvignon combines power and elegance. Blackcurrant, cedar, and silky tannins come together in a lingering finish. Serve with duck breast.
