D’Arenberg The Blewett Springs Grenache 2022

Of the various districts included in this series, for me, Blewett Springs really does stand out. Production methods are the same across all wines. This district really does seem to imbue the wines with a little more of everything and yet maintains a regal elegance, fine balance and seriously impressive length. A gleaming blood red with a purple rim, the wine offers a really gorgeous nose. The aromas weave throughout notes of cassis, cloves, plums, mulberries, coffee grinds and smoked meats. Look hard and there is even a hint of blueberries lurking in the background. There is a sleek texture here through to the satiny tannins. A superb Grenache which will provide pleasure for at least ten to fifteen years. Love it.
