John Loubser - Silverthorn Wines
ZAR 3 500
About this Item
6 x 750 ml bottles, comprising three bottles Silverthorn Jewel Box 2017 and three bottles Jewel Box 2019
Jewel Box is Silverthorn's prestige cuvée, produced since 2009 and consistently recognised among South Africa's leading Cap Classiques.
This special lot brings together two exceptional vintages:
2017 Jewel Box - 70% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir. The Chardonnay component was barrel fermented and matured to build richness and complexity. The wine spent 55 months on the lees before disgorgement.
2019 Jewel Box - 85% Chardonnay, 15% Pinot Noir. In this vintage, both components were barrel fermented and matured, with a higher proportion of Chardonnay to emphasise minerality and enhance longevity. The wine spent 47 months on the lees before disgorgement.
This exclusive lot offers a rare opportunity to experience two distinct expressions of Jewel Box side by side and discover the unique character and personality that each vintage reveals.
These wines are packed in a wooden box.
