The Thelema Verdelho was pressed in the unwooded style and does credit to this wonderful Portuguese grape variety. Seductive aromas of apricot and stone fruit on the nose are wonderfully complemented by notes of tangy lemon, lemongrass and subtle hints of warm spices on the palate.

Treatment in the cellar

The grape material for Thelema Verdelho was harvested in the early hours of the morning, destemmed, crushed and then pressed. The juice was subjected to a brief resting period in tanks, after which the clear juice was filled into stainless steel tanks and fermented for 19 days at a regulated 14° C. The wine matured on the yeast for 2 months before being bottled for final consumption. No wood was used in the production of Verdelho.
