Silverthorn River Dragon NV
Draco Africanus, the majestic African Dragon, is alleged to have spent its time whimsically flying and “skywriting” with smoke. Benevolent, wise and powerful, the ‘River Dragon’ of Silverthorn appears eternally silhouetted against the River Without End Mountains
Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Colombard from Breede River Valley, South Africa. The fruit comes from a vineyard planted in the 1980s,
Taste Profile: Vibrant green hue – with a fine twirling bead of bubbles. Vibrant aromas of chamomile blossom and thatch complimented by a subtle stone fruit and tropical notes. Well balanced with an elegant structure, fine mousse which imparts a gentle explosion of bubbles on the palate and a long finish
Winemaking Process: 40% of the base wine was fermented in old Acacia 500 litre barrels to enhance complexity. Secondary fermentation occurred in the bottle and the wine spent 12 months on the lees after which it was manually riddled and disgorged.
