Product information "Thelema Shiraz 2017"
Rich and dense, the legendary Thelema Shiraz bewitches the senses with aromas of warm spices, black fruits and blackcurrants. Full-bodied, this wine ends in a finely toasted finish. An immensely aromatic and inviting Shiraz, which also has a very good ageing potential.

After the harvest, the grapes were destemmed, crushed and turned over for 6 days. Before pressing, the juice was cooled for 2 days in stainless steel tanks. The whole wine matured for 18 months in new French oak for 35% and the rest in previously filled barrels.
