Tasting Note

The Estate Reserve Chardonnay has floral aromas with baked apple, singed citrus rind and toasted chestnuts. A harmony of apple notes, citrus, heather and spiced cinnamon butter are on the palate which is all supported by a vivid acidity. The flavours of pastry and toasted fruit linger to a mouth-watering finish.

Product Notes

Glenelly Estate Reserve Chardonnay is a high-quality white wine that comes from one of the leading wineries in South Africa. This wine is made from premium grapes sourced from the estate's vineyards located in the Stellenbosch region. It has a bright, golden color which matches its aromatic bouquet of citrus and peach intertwined with subtle hints of cinnamon and vanilla; this is due to the wine being matured in French oak barrels for 10 months. On the palate, the Glenelly Estate Reserve Chardonnay delivers a complex and well-balanced taste with refreshing acidity, rich fruit flavors, and enticing minerality. It goes well with seafood, white meat dishes, and creamy sauces.

About the Winery

Glenelly

The history of Glenelly dates back to 1783. It was when the first wine with its stamp got released in the market. Located on Simonsberg’s southern slopes in Stellenbosch, the winery’s records start under the ownership and leadership of May-Eliane de Lencquesaing. She realised and recognised the immense potential that the land held and focused all her energy and efforts on developing the estate and its vineyards. After overseeing and managing exhaustive studies on the property and the weather conditions, the founder planted several grape varieties. They consisted of Shiraz, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Chardonnay.
