winescribbler

A lively citrus streak, minerality, weight, fig-led flavours with a walnut complexity. A touch of oak too. Superb http://www.spittoon.biz/newton_johnson_winery_walker_b.html

Philip

Red apples on the nose, with a nice caramel scent. There are also notes of cashew and oak upfront. The wine has good bite upfront, before moving to a mellow, wide mid palate of butter, caramel, candied apple and cinammon. Finishes on a lot of oak, but ...

  • Thelema Chardonnay Elgin Sutherland 2007

    October 2009

    Thelema Chardonnay Elgin Sutherland 2007

    Snoothrank:

    Grassy, crisp nose with plenty of stone fruits. Definitely a crisp and acidic style of Chardonnay, with a lot of refreshing fruit and a nicely oaked finish with a hint of cedar, corn, and toast. Read More

  • Thelema Chardonnay Elgin Sutherland 2007

    October 2009

    Thelema Chardonnay Elgin Sutherland 2007

    Snoothrank:

    Fairly oaky but with a nice perfumed quality exhibiting a bit of toasted corn, cashew brittle and floral notes over the oak and tart apricot fruit tones. A fairly rich mouthfeel with plenty of sweet fruit, a touch of RS to help add roundness and soften the bit of tannin on the palate. Nice fruity finish with peaches, vanilla, and a touch of toa...

    July 2009

    Thelema Sauvignon Blanc Elgin Sutherland 2008

    Snoothrank:

    light aromatics, crisp yellow fruit, a touch flinty, a touch of green tea, rather soft and easy with fresh citrus flavors, lime, pineapple, and guava, fresh limeadey, decent acid shows up on the backend, clean fruity finish, uncomplicated but appealing in its intense lime character and freshness 88pts Read More

  • Thelema Sauvignon Blanc Elgin Sutherland 2008

    July 2009

    Thelema Sauvignon Blanc Elgin Sutherland 2008

    Snoothrank:

    Lightly spiced, herbed melon and lemon aromas. Palate has medium to high acidity but more harmonious with the texture than in some other Sauvignon Blancs I've had. Lemon and melon again in the mouth and finishing with light nutty notes. Read More

  • Thelema Sauvignon Blanc Elgin Sutherland 2008

    July 2009

    Thelema Sauvignon Blanc Elgin Sutherland 2008

    Snoothrank:

    Stinky, farty pear on the nose (in a good way). Touch of citrus. Acidic, kindof tart, like a jolly rancher (taste isn't like a jolly rancher though). A little lemony. Not too bad. Nice crisp summer white. Read More
