Merchant's description

Glenelly's Estate Reserve Chardonnay comes from one of Stellenbosch's most picturesque properties, where French winemaking tradition meets South African sunshine. This is Chardonnay with serious intent: carefully handled fruit from mountain slopes, judicious oak treatment, and the kind of balance that makes you remember why this grape conquered the world. The 2022 vintage shows beautiful integration of ripe stone fruit with fresh citrus, wrapped in a creamy texture that speaks to quality French oak and skilled lees work.
