Winemaker Notes
A typical Thelema Sauvignon Blanc - lovely fresh melon and grapefruit flavors, with a full, grassy palate, all in perfect balance.

Wine Spectator
Very refined, with lime and sea salt notes carried on a racy, elegant frame. Lingering hints of chive flower and flint. Drink now.

Robert
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.
