Thelema was recommended by a friend and I did not know much about. What treasure of a winery. The views are fantastic and their Sauvignon Blanc and Syrah are very good. The staff was amazingly accommodating and knowledgeable. Highly recommend

Thelema transports you to a hidden away mountain valley type of wine estate. Neslted a top the Helshoogte Pass this is the perfect wine and water pit stop. Thank you Crescenda and Team for having us.

We love coming to Thelema. The wines are excellent - and teh service whilst tasting out of this Earth. And yes Noluvo: you even got me to reread Rabelais!
A great service - beyond the wines and Crescenda speaking excellent German - is the service to send wines home at very good rates.
We love it all

We absolutely love the farm and the wines, and have always had brilliant service here. We've always had a wonderful time at Thelema and will continue to come back. It's a pity that when went for a tasting last weekend, having booked for 2pm, we were rushed through our wines by our waitress. We got the impression that we were not really welcome and needed to leave before closing.

You can sit in the tasting room with panoramic vineyard views and taste the wines the estate is famous for. They also have details available for European importers so you can order for delivery on your return to the UK

We absolutely loved how welcoming the staff was here! We tasted 6 wines for 100R. Wines were delicious! We thoroughly enjoyed the Cabernet and the white dessert wines as well. The views are so beautiful as well. Definitely recommend stopping for a visit!

This is now our go-to winery to buy dessert wines to take home, and each time we visit it's lovely to see the establishment developing. The outdoor suspended tasting area is fabulous and the views across the magnificent vines and mountains awesome.
The dessert wine was (is!) as good as we remembered.
