{"product_id":"2022-thistle-weed-nastergal","title":"2022 Thistle \u0026 Weed Nastergal","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis wine's named after 'nastergal' - black nightshade - a stubborn little weed with dark, juicy berries that turns up in local jams and backyard gardens across the Cape. Seems a fitting name for this dark, full-fruited blend of Tempranillo, Alicante Bouschet, and a handful of Portuguese varieties like Touriga Nacional and Souzão.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade by Thistle \u0026amp; Weed founders Stephanie Wild and Etienne Terblanche, it’s a wine that leans into the wild side of the Western Cape. Rich in colour and flavour, it sees a short stint in older barrels - enough to give it shape, not swagger. Think black plum, clove, a bit of scrubby bush spice, and that dusty cocoa edge you often find in Touriga-based reds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe texture’s plush but not overdone, tannins tucked neatly under ripe fruit. It’s generous, but there’s tension too - a wine built for the table, not the trophy shelf. No ego, just proper flavour and a whole lot of character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e94 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Clove \u0026amp; dark chocolate, some scrub, fitting the black plum concentration perfectly... plush texture, fruit coats the tannins.\"\u003cbr\u003e- [Unknown Critic] ([Unknown Publication])\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n","brand":"Thistle \u0026 Weed","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56141666713972,"sku":"nsn1789956353800","price":16.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/5613\/8100\/files\/2022-thistle-weed-nastergal_1.webp?v=1789956356","url":"https:\/\/petcameramon.shop\/products\/2022-thistle-weed-nastergal","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
