Thelema The Mint comes from the Stellenbosch region in South Africa. The wine has a long tradition and is proven to be one of the best Cabernet Sauvignons in the country.

The origin of the "mint" character is attributed to the transfer of air from the eucalyptus trees bordering this particular Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard to the grapes. The outer wax layer of the berries adsorbs eucalyptol, a compound responsible for the aroma, which is released into the air by the trees. It then dissolves on the skins during the fermentation process, inevitably giving the wine a "minty" character that is unique to this vineyard. In the glass, the wine is a deep dark red. The nose is characterized by aromas of ripe red berries, cassis and dark chocolate. On the palate, a hint of mint complements the opulent overall impression. The wine has fine tannins with a long mocha finish.

Maturing for 18 months in wooden barrels, with 40% new French oak and 60% older barrels, gives Thelema The Mint depth and longevity. Try this exceptional wine with roast lamb, for example.

Make sure you get a few bottles, as the wine is already sold out from the winery.

Thelema Mountain Vineyards

Thelema Mountain Vineyards liegt hoch am Helshoogte Pass des Simonsbergs im weltberühmten Weinbaugebiet Stellenbosch in Südafrika.

Gyles Webb, eigentlich Buchhalter von Beruf, kaufte zusammen mit seiner Frau die ursprüngliche Obstfarm 1983 und begann in der Zeit Weinbau in Stellenbosch zu studieren. Der Erfolg ließ nicht lange auf sich warten, bereits Mitte der 90er Jahre waren seine Weine weit bekannt und er gewann zahlreiche Preise und Auszeichnungen.

Bei Thelema Mountain Vineyards sind rote Weine mit Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot sowie Shiraz und Cabernet Franc vorherrschend. Weißweine der Spitzenklasse von den Sorten Sauvignon Blanc und Chardonnay gehören allerdings auch zum Repertoire.

Barbara und Gyles Webb leiten heute das Unternehmen Thelema Mountain Vineyards. Zum Unternehmen gehört seit 2002 auch ein zweiter Weinberg im Elgin Valley, wo die Marke Sutherland Vineyards produziert wird.

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.

Der reinsortige Cabernet Sauvignon verbinde Opulenz und Eleganz. Delikate, intensive Aromen von roten Beeren und ein Hauch reifer Pflaume zeichnen den Rotwein aus.

Zur intensiven, dunklen Frucht in der Nase kommt am Gaumen eine erfrischende, animierende Säure. Mit schlanker Struktur und einem fast nie endenden Abgang. Der 18-monatige Einsatz von 20% neuer französischer Eiche führt zu feingeschliffenen Tanninen, wunderbaren Aromen von dunkler Schokolade und einer eleganten Textur.Ein wahrhaft besonderer Rotwein aus Südafrika, an dem Weinliebhaberinnen und -liebhaber auch in den kommenden 10 oder 20 Jahren noch viel Freude haben werden. Genießen Sie diesen Cabernet Sauvignon aus Stellenbosch zum Beispiel zu Wild oder aber zu Pasta-Variationen mit kräftig-würzigen Saucen.
