Oplev Magien i Hver Dråbe med Grenache fra Thistledown 
Grenache-druen er en skjult skat, især når den dyrkes på gamle vinstokke. Den bringer en æterisk, fin og let karakter frem, kombineret med en dybde og elegance, som vinkendere ofte beskriver som 'burgundisk'. Dette er en af de sjældne vine, du kan nyde at dufte til hele aftenen. Forestil dig duften af tranebærsaft, vilde moreller og sandeltræ.
Hver flaske er ufiltreret, håndlavet og lagret på brugte fade for at bevare dens unikke smag.

96 points James Halliday

The Vagabond is superlative, but this is extraordinary! The tannins, taut, febrile and wound across a spool of sage, thyme and blood orange zest. The drive of red cherry, rhubarb and Mediterranean herb is palate staining, without ever reneging on its sandy, vibrant and effortless hand. Incredibly complex. Scintillating length. Kerpow 

96 points James Suckling 

A complex nose of blueberry, raspberry, red cherry, violet, bark, moss and grated nutmeg. Medium- to full-bodied with silky, fruit-soaked tannins. Generous, but not overdone. Rather, it is fresh, bright and vibrant, with a bevy of succulent fruit and ground spice. Layered, with great balance. 

95 points The Wine Front 

Dark raspberry, sage and thyme, spice and dried roses. Medium-bodied, ripe raspberry, silky and sooty tannin, perfume of bergamot and gentle twist of amaro, a sort of stony/earthy character, almond and fine grip on a long and fragrant red berry finish. Beautiful wine. And it needs more time. 

95 points The Real Review 

Medium to deep red colour with a good tint of purple. The bouquet shows iodine, balsamic herbs possibly signalling some whole-bunch activity. It's full-bodied and rich in the mouth, the generous flavour backed judiciously by abundant tannins, nice and ripe. Luscious stuff-but also has a little more structure than The Vagabond. (50% whole bunches)

The 2021 She's Electric Old Vine Single Vineyard Grenache is like silken tofu in the mouth: it's is all about velvety texture, except here, the fruit is punctuated and supported by both very fine tannins and tense acid. This is a very smart wine, exciting, with notes of blood, raspberry pip, pink peppercorn and red licorice. It has a texturally creamy undertow, and the tannins are powdery and smashed into the fruit. Awesome.
