The wine's development is fresh and lively, bringing forth the aromas typical of Glenelly's terroir. The wine has a deep color, is perfectly balanced, and boasts an exquisite structure with velvety tannins and very good aging potential.

Zusammensetzung Cabernet Sauvignon 90%, Cabernet Franc 6%, Petit Verdot 4%
Vinifikation The winter arrived late but was cold enough to allow for a dormancy period for our vines. Low rainfall led to low soil moisture, which later in the season resulted in the vines being stressed by drip irrigation. Fortunately, spring began with good, even budbreak. The warm weather of the season with little to no rain, led to smaller berries and lower grape mass. Nevertheless, there were more grapes on the vines to compensate for the yield. The harvest was earlier than usual and larger than in previous years. The grapes were lightly crushed and fermented in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeast cultures. Extended maceration lasted 2 to 3 weeks before the wine was gently pressed and transferred to new French oak barrels where malolactic fermentation took place. The wine remained on its lees for an extended period before being racked (on average every 4 months) and matured for 24 months in new French oak barrels.
