Halliday Wine Companion 'By the Glass' EP 10: Giles Cooke MW, Thistledown Wines, South Australia.

We catch up with Giles Cooke, winemaker and Award Winning Varietal (grenache) recipient at the 2022 Halliday Wine Companion Awards, to discuss all things grenache!

Grenache in Australia has quite a chequered past but is now gaining recognition as a standalone variety - take a deep dive with us as we learn more about this remarkable variety.

We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
