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.
Description
This Chardonnay Cap Classique displays a vibrant green-yellow hue with a fine, persistent bead of bubbles. Aromas of green apple and acacia blossom are complemented by subtle notes of minerality and freshly baked brioche. The palate is well-balanced, showcasing an elegant structure and a fine mousse that imparts a gentle explosion of bubbles, leading to a long, satisfying finish.
Food Pairing
The Green Man pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, including oysters, shellfish, and light appetizers. Its crisp acidity and elegant structure make it an excellent companion for sushi, smoked salmon, and creamy cheeses.
