Thistledown Sands of Time Grenache 2022:
Blewitt Springs. A single vineyard with vines 75 years old.
Exotic, so much perfume of flowering herbs, aniseed, chocolate, dark raspberry and cherry. Muscular style, purple and ripe red fruits, lots of spice, layers of graphite tannin grip, all blue and spicy on a very long and firm finish. Quite something.
