Thistledown Gorgeous Grenache Rosé 2022
Bright coral pink hue. Fragrant with classic strawberries and cream notes but also a hint of bitter herbs too. Has a depth and weight on the palate which appeals as the ripe red berries and amaro herb notes layer across the tongue. Good length and finely framed acidity carries it long. Food will be beneficial here as well.

The Gorgeous range of wines from Thistledown are just that: uncomplicated, sleek, classy quaffers. Very good things. This 2022 Gorgeous Grenache Rosé is fresh and bright, with summer raspberries, a flick of exotic spice and some green tea tannins through the finish. Very good summer drinking!
