Thistledown ‘Million Suns’ Grenache 2022, Riverland

Description

Few countries turn out Grenache quite like Australia – and few winemakers craft it quite like Thistledown. By making the most of premium vineyard sites across South Australia, they take the grape to a new level. The Grenache for this wine comes from one vineyard, close to the town of Moorook. The region is pushing boundaries with its diversity, as the long sunny days, cool nights and tempering influence of the winding Murray River make for ideal viticultural conditions. It's richly aromatic, with layered and textural flavours of wild strawberry and spice. There is a bit of a succulent savoury hit in there too, which gets you craving the next sip.
