Information about "Thelema Sutherland Cabernet Sauvignon 2023"
The Thelema Sutherland Cabernet Sauvignon enchants with an aroma of dark berries, accentuated by rich cassis. Its deep ruby hue highlights classic Cabernet notes of ripe black currants, plums, and a delicate touch of graphite. On the palate, it marries elegance with concentration, coupled with hints of cedar and spice. The fine tannins and refreshing acidity offer good structure and balance, leading to a long, persistent finish.
The hand-harvested grapes were meticulously sorted, completely destemmed, and gently crushed. Fermentation occurred over seven days with regular pump-overs in stainless steel tanks. After alcoholic fermentation, the wine was transferred into barrels to complete malolactic fermentation. It aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, with 30% new wood.
