    Thelema Sauvignon Blanc 2024 - Crisp, Vibrant Stellenbosch Excellence

    Play Episode Listen Later Nov 20, 2025 16:26


    The wine is the Thelema “Sauvignon Blanc” 2024, from the estate's vineyards in the Stellenbosch region of South Africa. It is described as bright and vibrant, with refreshing aromas of melon and grapefruit, a crisp and lively palate of zesty citrus and subtle tropical-fruit flavours, all balanced by a mineral edge and a clean, invigorating finish. The wine is made from selected Sauvignon Blanc clones (133 ER, SV 316D, 159C, 11R and 7A) grown on Hutton-type decomposed granite soils with vine plantings ranging from 1985 to 2007, and yields of about 7 t/ha. It was vinified with minimal intervention: grapes gently destemmed, cooled, clarified by floatation, fermented at about 14–15 °C and then left on gross lees for six months before bottling. The finished wine shows an alcohol of 13.5 % vol, residual sugar about 2.8 g/l, total acidity about 7.4 g/l and pH around 3.12. As a pairing suggestion: this is well-suited as an aperitif or with delicately-flavoured foods such as salads, oysters, scallops or light poultry dishes. It's a fine South African white wine, vibrant and elegant, showcasing Sauvignon Blanc in a cool‐climate Stellenbosch setting - definitely one to enjoy while fresh, though the estate notes you may hold it a few years for further subtle development.

    You don't have to be great to start.... But you have to start to be great.. Warrior Fitness is a Physical and Mental training system which was mainly used since the year 2000 by Morné for the conditioning purposes of his MMA athletes i.e.. cage fighters. After more than a decade of just Morné's MMA Fighters being exposed to these Combat Athletic training methods and challenges he realized that not just fighters can benefit from this type of training but anyone interested in living a healthier more athletic lifestyle. The system is called Warrior Fitness as one needs a warrior mentality to work hard to develop oneself to deal with life's challenges thus bringing out the warrior within you. Functional fitness and functional exercise are the latest gym buzzwords. They focus on building a body capable of doing real-life activities in real-life positions, not just lifting a certain amount of weight in an idealized posture created by a gym machine. Warrior Fitness is all about a community that spontaneously arises when people do these workouts together. In fact, the communal aspect of Warrior Fitness is a key component of why it's so effective and popular! Become the Legend You were Born to Be! The key to functional exercise is integration.
