About this wine

Awarded 95 points by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, Thistledown Thorny Devil Grenache is a vibrant and expressive single-vineyard Grenache that showcases the elegance and power of old-vine McLaren Vale fruit. Aromas of wild strawberry, red cherry, and crushed violets are layered with subtle spice and earthy undertones, creating a beautifully perfumed bouquet. The silky palate offers ripe raspberry, pomegranate, and savoury herbs, supported by fine-grained tannins and bright acidity. Long and refined on the finish, this Grenache pairs beautifully with grilled lamb, roasted vegetables, or Mediterranean cuisine.
