Silverthorn The Green Man MCC 750ml

Silverthorn The Green Man MCC 750 ml captures the finesse of a premium South African Méthode Cap Classique made entirely from Chardonnay grown on limestone‑rich soils in Robertson. It opens with vibrant green‑yellow hues and aromas of green apple, acacia blossom and brioche, while the palate delivers fine mousse, crisp acidity and a long, elegant finish suited for oysters, langoustines or refined toasts. Hand‑harvesting in the early hours, whole‑bunch pressing with a very low juice yield (approx. 500 L/ton), and a minimum 21 months lees ageing ensure depth, texture and persistent bead.

Top ratings validate this wine’s quality: the 2017 vintage received 92 points from Falstaff, placing it among the higher‑tier sparkling wines from South Africa. Technical analysis shows an ABV of approximately 11.9%, residual sugar around 7.9 g/L, total acidity about 6.1 g/L, and pH near 3.19 for the 2021 vintage. With production rooted in the boutique estate of Silverthorn Wines and vineyard‑driven philosophy, Silverthorn The Green Man MCC offers a standout choice for sparkling wine enthusiasts seeking elegance, regional character and premium value.
