2015 Glenelly Chardonnay, Unwooded, Glass Collection, Stellenbosch (6 x Bottle)
Really fresh and clean on the nose with marked minerality and green fruits. The palate is quite creamy textured with underlying richness, with flvours of papaya, melon and pear with an overwhelming sensation of steeliness, not unlike fine Chablis, but with an edge of tropical fruit.

Vinous
Pale bright yellow. Sexy, musky aromas of stone fruits, cantaloupe rind, lime and smoky lees. This unoaked Chardonnay shows the added richness of the 2015 vintage but with terrific bright framing acidity and juiciness to its stone fruit, citrus and mineral flavors. Finishes with sneaky length, if a bit youthfully ungiving in a Chablis way, in spite of the rich year. Fairly dry but sophisticated, especially for a Chardonnay at this price.
