Thistledown Silken Beastie Shiraz, from the Barossa Valley, is a powerful yet refined red that exemplifies the richness and sophistication of old-vine Barossa fruit. Aromas of blackberry, plum, and blueberry unfold with notes of violet, dark chocolate, and a touch of savoury spice. The palate lives up to its name, velvety and opulent, delivering concentrated dark fruit, mocha, and cedar wrapped in silky tannins and perfectly balanced acidity. The finish is long, layered, and beautifully poised. This Barossa Shiraz pairs superbly with chargrilled steak, slow-cooked short ribs, or roast venison, complementing its bold flavour and texture. The Thistledown Silken Beastie Shiraz captures the essence of Barossa luxury, intensity, purity, and seamless balance in every sip. A wine of depth and grace, drinking superbly now yet capable of aging gracefully for a decade. 14.5% ABV. Screwcap closure.
