Description Thistledown boasts "an assemblage of talent, superb old-vine sites and remarkable wines that have established a firmament at the top of the Grenache totem in this country" (Ned Goodwin MW, The Halliday Wine Companion), and won Halliday's Wine of the Year 2026 – for a Grenache. This genuinely gorgeous 94pt Grenache has "a beautifully fragrant aroma of rose petals, mixed spices and red fruits" (Huon Hooke, The Real Review), its bright palate of fresh red fruit has "notes of rosehip, maraschino cherry and Seville orange" (Ned Goodwin MW, The Halliday Wine Companion).
