Lady May Cabernet Sauvignon Petit Verdot 2017

Dark and brooding, the flagship 2017 Lady May from Glenelly is effusive from the first pour, with aromas of black cherry, purple herbs, baking spice and chocolate. The palate is distinctly savoury, with a spicy quality that represents quite a contrast from prior vintages. This is an altogether quite serious offering and perhaps lacks the glossy suave character of, say, the 2015, which I prefer at this stage. But this should be absolutely fantastic in around 5-10 years’ time and I can’t wait to try it again. — 20 days ago

Estate Reserve Stellenbosch Chardonnay 2018

Nose of citrus. Just a touch of vanilla and peach flower followed by lime and tropical fruits. A touch of grassiness. Medium acidity. Crisp. Not your fathers chardonnay. I like that. — 4 years ago

Grand Vin Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon Petit Verdot Merlot 2008

Good medium bodied red. Lots of dark bramble fruit, medium tannins with earth notes that add depth leading to a nice peppery smooth finish. Pairs well with spicy food and grilled red meat. — 9 years ago
