Gorgeous Glenelly vino…

What we're drinking this month. You guessed it, Glenelly!

We love the gorgeous Glenelly Glass Collection.

 

Wondering what to stock in your bar fridge for the rest of summer? Wonder no more. Meet the Glenelly Glass Collection.

 

First up, the unwooded Chardonnay. Think zesty citrus fruits, melon, papaya and ripe pears laced with honeysuckle notes and a touch of cloves. An unwooded Chardonnay is not only an ideal summer wine, but it’s also one of the most versatile, food-friendly wines out there. A perfect accompaniment to fresh oysters, prawns, calamari, ceviche, fish on the braai, sushi, chicken on the Weber, cheese and bread. Sounds like summer to us! Around R95 from good bottle stores.

 

Then there’s the magnificent Cabernet Sauvignon which is also a great summer wine if you drink it slightly chilled (around 14 to 18 degrees). A 2018 Veritas Double Gold medallist, the Cabernet boasts notes of blackcurrants and cherries, mint, roasted coffee beans and tobacco. Let’s be honest, there’s not much that beats a sunny poolside braai in summer. Juicy steaks, sticky barbecued ribs, wors, lamb chops and beef burgers. All you need is a glass of delicious red wine to complete the occasion. Around R105 from good bottle stores.
