Thistledown Sands of Time Grenache 2024
A faithful expression of the Blewitt Springs site – beautiful, haunting aromatics, fine sandy tannins and wonderful, memorable length on the palate.
Thistledown Sands of Time Grenache 2024
"From a 1957 patch in Blewitt Springs. Trott Vineyard. 33% whole bunch. Very aromatic, ripe raspberry, rosehip, exotic spice, slight liquorice, orange peel. Medium to full-bodied, but bright, but good concentration, raspberry, balanced acidity, fine stony tannin, albeit with some firmness, and excellent length, with something of an amaro tang on the finish and some peanut flavour. Super wine. It’s maybe a little warmer and more breathy than the Charming Man, but gee, it has impact and power." 95 Points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
