Thelema Mountain Red: A Smooth Stellenbosch Blend of Elegance and Spice

Loading player...
Thelema Mountain Red is a smooth and vibrant blend from Thelema Mountain Vineyards in Stellenbosch, crafted from Shiraz, Petit Verdot, and Grenache grapes grown on the cool slopes of the Simonsberg. Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, it reveals aromas of ripe black fruit, mulberries, plums, and warm spice, with a soft, juicy palate and well-rounded tannins. This 2021 vintage, awarded 92 points at the International Wine Challenge, offers an easy-drinking yet elegant red that pairs beautifully with pizza, braai dishes, or light to medium-flavoured meals.
