Product information "Thelema Rabelais 2021"

The Thelema Rabelais ensnares the nose with intense and concentrated aromas of dark berry fruit, a hint of mocha and fragrant cedar wood, while nuances of sweet, sweet fruit on the palate, refined tannins and a long and finely balanced finish provide the ultimate pleasure !

Thelema Rabelais is a sensational Bordeaux blend made from the best grapes of each vintage. Individual barrels were identified whose juice was worthy enough to bear the name Rabelais.

Handpicked, destemmed, sorted, crushed and then fermented in steel tanks. After 5 days and fermentation completed, the wine remained on the skins for two more days before being pressed and transferred to barriques for malolactic fermentation. There it matured before bottling for a total of 20 months in French 225 l barrels made of 100% new wood.
