About this Item
The Estate Reserve is the signature blend of Glenelly - a Bordeaux style blend with a touch of Syrah. It combines the rich, savoury character of Syrah, ripe fruit and hints of spice with the characteristic notes of Cabernet Sauvignon, blackberries, cherries, cassis and floral tones. It is supported by a firm tannin structure with elegant oak integration. The palate entry presents a tremendous concentration of flavours with a great complexity and a fresh long finish.

Critics Ratings
‘Syrah/shiraz & cab, supported by merlot, petit verdot. 2010 reflects sturdiness of vintage but also refinement associated with property. Look for syrah’s resonating dark spice & savouriness, cab’s ageworthy structure. Still youthful; potential to 2020 in 750ml, longer in magnum.’ - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2016, 4.5*
