Our Review
Established by David and Cheryl Clarke (née Thorn), and son Sam, Thorn-Clarke is one of the largest family-owned estate-based businesses in the Barossa. Their winery is close to the border between the Barossa and Eden valleys and 3 of their 4 vineyards are in the Eden Valley: the Mt Crawford Vineyard is at the southern end of the Eden Valley, while the Milton Park and Sandpiper vineyards are further north in the Eden Valley. The 4th vineyard is at St Kitts, at the northern end of the Barossa Ranges. In all 4 vineyards careful soil mapping has resulted in matching of variety and site, with all the major varieties represented. -JAMES HALLIDAY
Specialities
Shotfire 'Quartage' is a blend of varietals made famous by the Bordeaux region in France, Thorn-Clarke Quartage has collected numerous trophies over the years at many of Australia's major wine shows.
Sandpiper Riesling from the Mt Crawford region at the very southern end of Eden Valley is always a hit with white wine drinkers.
