2022 Thistledown Gorgeous Shiraz

The palate is soft and slurpy, the texture silky and any tannins just add a little seasoning – like macerated strawberries and black pepper.

Description

Excited by the response they got from their Gorgeous Grenache, they have taken a similarly left field take on Shiraz by taking old vines and co-fermenting with a little Zibibbo to make a delicious, but very different Shiraz. Zibibbo, otherwise known as Muscat (de Alexandria), where the Muscat adds a floral lift. In the Rhone Valley Viognier is often co-fermented with Syrah, adding a subtle perfume to the mix. Not your average Shiraz!

Smells

On the nose there are peaches, ripe nectarine, wild raspberry and a little spice.

Tastes

The palate is soft and slurpy, the texture silky and any tannins just add a little seasoning – like macerated strawberries and black pepper. Turning a previously undervalued resource into something that is hugely enjoyable and ultimately gorgeous. Drinking perfectly now through 2027 and will compliment all BBQed meats. For optimal drinking pleasure, the recommended serving temperature is 16-18 degrees.
