Thistledown Thorny Devil Single Vineyard Grenache
An old vine Grenache from the Barossa Valley.
From their small-batch winery in the idyllic Adelaide Hills, Giles Cooke MW, Fergal Tynan MW and Peter Leskethey work with pristine fruit sourced from iconic vineyard sites. They craft lithe, energetic wines that illustrate the benefits of great sites and intelligent, low-intervention winemaking. Giles and Fergal share a particular passion for Grenache and, in ever more detail, Thistledown continue to unpick the rich patchwork of South Australian Grenache – reassembling it in their own inimitable style.
Packing the characteristic Barossa punch, this delicately hued red is otherwise very elegant with vibrant wild strawberry, spice and silky texture.
