Thistledown Sands of Time Grenache, from the ancient sandy soils of Blewitt Springs in McLaren Vale, is a profound and graceful expression of old-vine Grenache. The nose is captivating, layers of wild strawberry, red cherry, and rose petal weave with hints of blood orange, thyme, and subtle spice. On the palate, it’s ethereal yet intense, showing pure red fruit, fine-grained tannins, and a silken texture that glides effortlessly. There’s an underlying mineral freshness that gives remarkable lift and length. This Blewitt Springs Grenache pairs beautifully with roast lamb, duck confit, or grilled Mediterranean vegetables, accentuating its elegance and savoury edge. The Thistledown Sands of Time Grenache is a benchmark Australian Grenache, expressive, refined, and deeply rooted in place. A wine of poise and precision, it will reward patient cellaring for over a decade yet shines brilliantly in its youth. 14.0% ABV. Screwcap closure.
