Glenelly Glass Collection Syrah 2022
Glenelly Estate sits on the lower slopes of the Simonsberg in Stellenbosch, a site that combines warm ripening days with cooling afternoon breezes and well‑draining, decomposed granite soils — conditions that give Syrah ripe, pure fruit with a touch of freshness and minerality. The estate’s founder, May‑Éliane de Lencquesaing, brought a Bordeaux pedigree and a clear focus on quality and site expression when she established Glenelly; that French influence is balanced by modern South African viticulture and careful cellar work.
Colour:
Deep ruby with purple edges and medium depth, showing youthful clarity.
Nose:
Bright red and dark berry fruit at the forefront — ripe cherry and plum — with lifted floral notes (violet/jasmine), white pepper and a faint garrigue/herb character. Subtle smoke and pepper spice appear with aeration.
Palate:
Medium‑plus body with a smooth, supple texture. The palate delivers red cherry and bramble framed by fine, slightly gripping tannins and a fresh line of acidity. Spicy white‑pepper and a savoury, herbal mid‑palate add complexity; oak influence is supportive rather than overt, contributing toast and structure more than vanilla. The overall impression is poised, varietal and food‑friendly.
Finish:
Medium to long; lingering black/red fruit, peppery spice and a dry, savoury edge that keeps the wine honest and inviting for a second glass.
- Food Pairing : This Syrah pairs well with grilled or roasted meats, such as lamb or beef, and dishes featuring spicy sausages. Its balanced structure and spicy notes also complement hearty stews and barbecued fare.
