Grenache is Australias signature grape variety & Thistledown are slightly obsessed with it.
Utilising a range of premium vineyards across South Australia, they've crafted a wine that captures all that is good about Grenache.
Aromatic, deceptively light but with beautiful wild fruit, & slurpy, supple tannins. ...
A pale yet vibrant pink, the aromas are all wild strawberries with hints of citrus.
The palate is crisp & dry with tangy raspberry scented fruit with a mouth-watering, moreish finish. ...
Wine always taste better when there is a good story behind it & She's Electric is no exception.
In the vineyard where the grapes are sourced from is an overhead power cable... It turns out that there had been a power cut & during the power outage, some birds had perched on the lines. As the electricity surged through the line again, a combustible bird fell to the ground & set light to the vineyard, destroying half of the original vines & in one fell swoop made a scarce resource even scarcer.
The worlds first avian vine selection programme! Thankfully half of the vines survived & the fruit used is from the older part of the vineyard. ...
Complex & concentrated yet pleasingly light on its feet.
Free your mind from stereotypes of the past, be willing to give things another go & imagine the beauty & subtlety that can be borne of an otherwise hostile environment.
Not afraid to do the same, it took a second incarnation before Thistledown were convinced that they had captured the real beauty of the Barossa. ...
On a beautiful hillside in the Clarendon sub-region of McLaren Vale, three generations of the Smart family have devoted their lives to Grenache. Decades have passed where precious few valued their crop & yet they endured. That this remarkable vineyard has sustained is down to one man, Bernard Smart & this wine pays homage to this charming man.
From a near-perfect vintage for the site, this wine displays muscular yet elegant silky black fruits coupled with deep, rich, warming spices, hints of violet, mineral & black cherry. ...
Packing the characteristic Barossa punch, this delicately hued red is otherwise very elegant with vibrant wild strawberry, spice & silky texture. ...
