The 2019 Thelema Chardonnay is a vibrant, food‑friendly white bottled in a 750ml format, crafted to showcase the year’s bright fruit and precise acidity.

Tasting notes

  • Nose: white peach, crisp pear, and citrus zest with a hint of mineral lift.
  • Palate: clean, medium‑bodied texture with pronounced acidity, flavors of lemon, green apple, and a subtle oak‑derived vanilla and toast.
  • Finish: mineral‑driven with a lingering citrus rind and almond nuance.

Wine style and pairing

Thelema 2019 Chardonnay sits in an approachable, refreshing style that stays bright from the first sip to the long finish. Its balance of fruit and acidity makes it a versatile companion at the table.

Food pairings

  • Roasted chicken with herbs and lemon
  • Grilled scallops or prawns with garlic butter
  • Creamy mushroom risotto
  • Seafood pasta with a light cream sauce

Serving suggestions

Chill to about 10–12°C (50–54°F) and pour into a white wine glass to concentrate aroma. Enjoy as a refined entry point to the flavor profile of Chardonnay and as a flexible pairing for a variety of seafood, poultry, and cream‑based dishes.

"Opening to a reductive nose with oak aromas, the 2019 Chardonnay offers notes of sweet citrus, green and yellow apples and soft notes of toasted almonds. Medium-bodied, the wine uncoils on the palate, showing a delightfully pleasing texture that is food friendly, nimble and lively with acidity, offering flavors of popcorn kernel before gliding to a crisp, lingering, subtly-spiced finish. Just under 14,000 bottles were produced after the wine rested for 10 months in 35% new French oak barrels. Nicely done!"
