Glenelly 2008 The Glass Collection Cabernet Sauvignon (Western Cape)
- Editors' Choice
- Online Exclusive

The aromas are promisingly thick and chewy, with assertive notes of black cherry, cigar tobacco and bittersweet chocolate.

Glenelly 2009 The Glass Collection Cabernet Sauvignon (Stellenbosch)
- $18
This is a very nice Cab at an extremely friendly price. Smoke and deep black fruit are the first impressions from the bouquet, with aromas of whole tobacco leaf and balsamic reduction appearing upon further nosing. Filling and velvety in the mouth, a kiss of charred oak and roasted cocoa nibs remain through the close.

Glenelly 2009 The Glass Collection Shiraz (Stellenbosch)
- $20
Concentrated aromas of dark berries and juicy plum are laced with accents of licorice root and wild game. The round mouth shows a bit more of an herbal component with flavors of bark and forest floor, and a spicy pepper note remains on the close.

Glenelly 2010 The Glass Collection Chardonnay (Stellenbosch)
- $18
Round but lifted with racy pineapple-infused acidity in the mouth, this Chard offers ripe melon and red apple flavors to balance the serious cut. A hint of peach pit nuttiness stays through the finish.
