Wine Tasting Review
"Thistle hits the spot"
Review in Bite Magazine about Winetasting with Thistledown Vinery
Customer Review
“We had a fabulous evening here. The neat platter was huge and each element was delicious. Great wine and service was friendly and relaxed. Great music too. Cant wait to go back ( and have exactly the same !)"

We gather for brainstorming sessions, wine tastings, and seasonal clean-ups (check out the photo).
When you visit the bar, you'll likely encounter Ghislain – don't hesitate to ask him for a recommendation. He always suggests a beautiful glass of something special.
