Thistledown
Thistledown is a winery in the Barossa Valley, South Australia's premier region for bold, structured reds. The house focuses on Grenache and Shiraz—varieties that thrive in Barossa's warm continental climate and ancient soils. Fool on the Hill Grenache and Where Eagles Dare Shiraz represent the winery's core expression, both rated highly by Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, Wine Advocate, and Decanter. Sands of Time Old Vine Single Vineyard Grenache draws from mature vines, capturing the depth and complexity that old-vine fruit can deliver. These wines reflect Barossa's signature character: ripe fruit, textural tannins, and the mineral backbone that defines the valley's best offerings.
