Thelema Chardonnay

The Thelema Chardonnay shows a nice, light straw yellow. The bouquet shows aromas of ripe peach, grapefruit marmalade, blossoms and complex yeasty flavours complement the toasty oak in the wine. The palate of this south-african white wine is clean with a lovely texture and long finish.

Enjoy this wine with full flavoured dishes such as lobster, tuna, chicken and pork.

Product recommendation

Thelema Sauvignon Blanc
The Sauvignon Blanc from the prestigious South African winery Thelema is a prime example of the style of the Cape region: clear, aromatic, mineral and with remarkable freshness. Thelema has deliberately not aged this Sauvignon Blanc in wood. The fruitiness of the white wine should come into its own. You can look forward to a wonderfully refreshing Sauvignon Blanc with aromas of grapefruit and melon on the nose. Balanced, light and invigorating on the palate.Enjoy Thelema Sauvignon Blanc as an aperitif or with salads, oysters, scallops or chicken. A remarkable dry wine from the renowned winery, which only uses grapes from its own vineyards.

In a dry, warm and windy year different varieties of grapes were ripe at the same time and made the harvest a true race against time.The experienced crew Thelema has mastered this task. Enjoy the Thelema Merlot with mushroom risotto, pasta dishes and grilled meat.
