Delicately onion-skin coloured with a fine dancing perlage, Silverthorn The Genie Brut Rosé presents itself in a glass and exudes an exotic bouquet of Turkish honey and fragrant rose water. The palate is caressed by delicious nuances of fresh raspberries and sherbet, completed by a velvety texture, a fine mousse and a long finish.
Arabic folklore often speaks of the genius in the bottle - a frank genie in the bottle that rises from fires without smoke. Known for using their spells for either magic or mischief and harm, these spirits gained great popularity in the stories of 1001 nights. Traditionally, rosé champagne and sparkling wine is produced from two red grape varieties, namely Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. But at Silverthorn The Genie, this rule was blatantly broken and, in keeping with the character of the headstrong genius, a more daring and exotic grape variety was chosen - Shiraz! A grape variety that has its origins in Persia. The result? Pure magic!
