Glenelly, The Glass Collection Merlot 2020

Glenelly The Glass Collection Merlot 2020 is a polished Stellenbosch Merlot that reflects the estate’s refined, Bordeaux-influenced philosophy. Crafted in a supple yet structured style and matured in French oak, it offers generous dark fruit, quiet spice, and the kind of balance that makes the wine both approachable and composed.

Appearance:

Deep ruby red with a bright, youthful core and excellent clarity.

Aroma:

Expressive and inviting, with dark plum, black cherry, and ripe berry fruit layered with chocolate, sweet spice, and a subtle savoury lift.

Taste:

Rich and rounded on entry, showing dark fruit, cherry, and spicy plum at the core. The palate has pleasing concentration and generosity, supported by fine, balanced tannins that give shape without making the wine feel heavy.

Finish:

Smooth, lingering, and softly savoury, tapering through dark fruit, cocoa, and gentle spice.

Food Pairing:

A lovely match for roast lamb, grilled beef, mushroom dishes, veal, or tomato-based pasta with herbs and parmesan.
