TASTING NOTES:
Lady May is Glenelly’s flagship estate wine. The 2017 Bordeaux Blend pays tribute to the pedigree of its legendary owner, may de lencquesaing - balanced, refined and mineral. Etched with underlining fruit power, it is fresh, stylish and subtle with dense age worthy tannins and a long, tight finish.
WINEMAKING:
The grapes were lightly crushed into stainless steel tanks.
The fermentation started with indigenous yeast and a mixture of rack-and-returns and open pump-overs.
Post-fermentation skin contact lasted 2 to 3 weeks before gentle pressing and transferring into new French oak barrels where malolactic fermentation took place.
The wine stayed on its lees for a considerable period of time before racking (on average, every 4 months) and enjoyed a maturation of 24 months in new French oak barrels.
