Thelema Riesling has a seductive scent of floral aromas and tropical pineapple and presents itself on the palate with a racy freshness, a well-balanced acidity and a smooth body. A very special drop!

The great passion of Gyles Webb, the owner and cellar master of Thelema, is Riesling. He loves this typical German grape variety and is always striving to grow and produce a genuine German Riesling in South Africa - a wonderfully successful challenge, despite the South African temperatures.

Treatment in the cellar

After the grapes were destemmed, the grapes were first crushed and then left on the skin for 12 hours before continuing to press the mash. The wine fermented in stainless steel tanks.
