The beautiful Thelema Mountain Vineyards are a family owned and managed wine estate perched at the top of the spectacular Helshoogte Pass in Stellenbosch.

A relative ‘newcomer’ in terms of wine farms, this run-down fruit farm was bought in 1983 by Gyles Webb, a former accountant, and his wife. A winery was built, the orchards made way for vineyards and Thelema quickly made a name for itself with excellent Chardonnays and classic Cabernet Sauvignons.

Tastings cost R25 per person (redeemable on purchase of any wine).

Open Monday to Friday from 09h00 – 17h00; Saturdays from 10h00 – 15h00; Closed on Sundays and Public Holidays. For further details, telephone: +27 21 885 1924, or visit www.thelema.co.za
