Silverthorn
Silverthorn Wines is among only a handful of producers who have dedicated their expertise solely to the production of this elegant style of wine. We are a proud member of the Cap Classique Association an independent organisation which collectively supports and markets Cap Classique wines and of course a member of the prestigious Cape Winemakers Guild. Silverthorn’s terroir with its rocky lime-rich shale soils similar to the famous Champagne soils in France coupled with our mature Chardonnay vineyards ensure the time is ripe for Silverthorn’s grand entry into the world of sparkling wine.
