Gorgeous Glenelly
Wondering what to stock your bar fridge with for the rest of summer? Well wonder no more! Meet the Glenelly Glass Collection. First up is the unwooded Chardonnay. Think Zesty fruits, melon, papaya and ripe pears laced with honeysuckle notes and a touch of cloves. Not only an ideal summer wine, it is also extremely versatile and food-friendly. Around R95 from good bottle stores. Next is the magnificent Cabernet Sauvignon, which is also a great summer wine if you drink it slightly chilled. A 2018 Veritas Double Gold medallist, the Cabernet boasts notes of black currants and cherries, mint, roasted coffee beans and tobacco – perfect with juicy steaks, sticky barbecued ribs and beef burgers! Around R105. To stand a chance to win a 2-bottle Glenelly hamper enter here!
