Product Notes

Thelema Sauvignon Blanc is a quintessentially British, yet markedly South African white wine. It bursts forth with striking aromatics of gooseberries and passionfruit, a signature characteristic of this renowned wine. It combines refreshing acidity and rich mineral tones, delivering a well-rounded and balanced flavour profile that enlivens any palate. Each sip reveals layers of complex subtleties embedded in its unique tropical character. A pronounced finish of zesty citrus underlines its exquisite appeal. Ideal for either casual quaffing or sophisticated culinary pairing, Thelema Sauvignon Blanc is a must-try for white wine aficionados indeed. In its style and elegance, it captures the true essence of South African viticulture.

Tasting Notes

Bright pale gold in colour with flashes of lime green, this wine is fresh, crisp and aromatic on the nose, boasting delicious gooseberry, melon and pineapple aromas. It is medium bodied and juicy, packed with fresh ripe melon and guava fruits and hints of bell pepper with a crisp, refreshing finish which is bone dry.
