Information about "Thelema Cabernet Sauvignon Magnum in Holzkiste 2021"
Indulge in the grandeur of Thelema with the Thelema Cabernet Sauvignon Magnum, beautifully housed in a wooden case. This vintage showcases a symphony of aromas, from blackcurrant leaves to rich coffee beans, culminating in a vibrant, structured mouthfeel. Nuances of leather, bittersweet chocolate, and luscious blackberry grace the palate, underpinned by firm tannins that promise an enduring finish. An exquisite representation of Stellenbosch's terroir and craftsmanship.
Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks using a combination of aerative 'pumpovers' and Pigeage techniques to ensure optimal extraction of color, tannins, and flavor. After fermentation, the wine is pressed off the skins and transferred to a storage tank, then filled into barrels for malolactic fermentation. The wine matures for 18 months in 40% new French oak barrels, with only one racking during this period. After tasting the individual parcels, our cellar team blends to create the final cuvée, preparing the wines for bottling.
