Reviews of Glenelly The Glass Collection Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
We had it with a bean stew and it was a fantastic combination (although I hadn't thought it at the beginning).
It was part of a Corporate gift.
Red colour and violet edges. Coffee aromas. A very well balanced Stellenbosch.
Lovely colour. Aromas of toffee. A Stellenbosch with a very good acidity.
