Glenelly Estate
Spring is in the air, for sure. Take it all in by savouring our new Le Rosé de May 2026 on the Vine Bistro's terrace, or by joining us for a Galileo Open Air Cinema screening at Glenelly Estate.

New vintage release: Le Rosé de May 2026

This is the wine you open on an unexpectedly warm spring afternoon, a celebration of all things spring.

The 2026 vintage of Glenelly Le Rosé de May opens with raspberry and cranberry, a touch of sweet spice, and settles into a palate of ripe pomegranate, textured and bright. Made entirely from Syrah, it is one of the classic grapes behind the Provençal rosés Madame May de Lencquesaing has always loved. This wine is crafted without any sulphur, using a natural preservative in its place to keep it fresh.

Only 1,730 cases were made this year, and it tends not to stay in the cellar for long.

The 2026 vintage is available now at R170* a bottle.

If you've had Le Rosé de May before, you already know why we're telling you early. If you haven't, this is the year to find out.
