THELEMA MOUNTAIN VINEYARDS Stellenbosch, South Africa "Gyles Webb was a Chartered Accountant in Durban when he decided to change careers and become a winemaker. After reading an Enology degree at Stellenbosch University, and working stints in South Africa and abroad, he and his wife's family in 1983 bought Thelema, a run-down fruit farm situated on the slopes of Simonsberg, a few kilometers outside Stellenbosch, and began converting the property into a wine estate. This purchase was the culmination of a long search by Gyles and Barbara Webb for that rare location where exceptional wines could be made, for this is their sole intention. The farm comprises 157 ha of land on the slopes of the Simonsberg. The elevation ranges from 370 to 640 meters above sea level of mainly south-facing slopes, making Thelema one of the highest and probably coolest wine farms in the Stellenbosch area. Although wine had been made on the farm in the early part of the century and table grapes produced until the late 1960's, there were no vines on the farm at the time of purchase. Rudi Schulz joined the winemaking team in 2000." |
