Thelema Cabernet Sauvignon 2010
Vineyards
Thelema, Stellenbosch
Winemaking and Maturation
De-stalked, hand sorting of berries, crushed, pumped into stainless steel tanks, pumped over for 8 days, left for 3 days before pressing, racked to barrel for malolactic fermentation.
Tasting Notes
Complex and stylish, with aromas of ripe blackcurrant, dark chocolate and pencil shavings. This wine is bone dry, yet exhibits a lovely sweet fruit character on the palate, with a lovely long finish. 18 months in barrel. 45% new French oak, balance in older barrels.
