Thelema
In 1983 Gyles Webb and his wife's family purchased a run-down fruit farm at the top of the Helshoogte Pass in Stellenbosch where they established Thelema Mountain Vineyards. At a time when the South African wine scene was focused on quantity rather than quality Webb was a trailblazing pioneer on a mission to craft world-class wines. Construction began on the winery in 1987 and Thelema produced its first vintage in 1988. Situated on the slopes of the Simonsberg Thelema occupies mainly south-facing aspects that afford spectacular views of the Simonsberg Drankenstein and Jonkershoek mountains. Elevations ranging from 370 to 640 meters above sea-level make the 157-hectare estate one of the coolest and highest wine farms in Stellenbosch.
Description
This bright and vibrant Sauvignon Blanc offers refreshing aromas of melon and grapefruit. The palate is crisp and lively, with zesty citrus and subtle tropical fruit flavors balanced by a mineral edge. The finish is clean and invigorating, showcasing excellent acidity and length.
Food Pairing
Enjoy as an aperitif or with delicately flavored foods like salads, oysters, scallops, and chicken.
