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.
