'Million Suns' Old Vine Grenache

Thistledown | Riverland

Majestic

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. This bottling from the Riverland area is 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.


About the producer
Thistledown Wines are led by terroir. In fact, Masters of Wine Giles Cooke and Fergal Tynan founded the brand specifically after discovering some top-tier sites, first in the McLaren Vale, Barossa and Adelaide Hills – and now in Riverland. They specialise in hand-made, small-batch wines that let the landscape sing, with minimalist winemaking techniques and a strong respect for sustainability.


About the region
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.
