The 2023 Spice Garden Single Site Grenache vineyard is right in the heart of Blewitt Springs, bush vines planted in 1939 on squeaky white beach sand. Aromatiucally, the wine leads with Boscobel rose and raspberry seed, red apple skins, black cherry and star anise. The "minty" aspect of star anise leads into things like shaved fennel and a hint of tarragon. It's a cool offset to the red fruit. In the mouth, the tannins are silky, chewy and seamless. It provides a perfume in the mouth that helps to redefine the palate once again. It's sort of circular in that way. This wine makes you think more about it—about its flow and shape, its presence and impact.
