Grenache Night 2023 (Black Sheep, Santa Barbara, CA): Dense and rich, with ripe dark fruit and an array of spice notes. Somehow managed to come off as balanced despite the turbo-charged concentration. Shows no signs of tiring.

Gave it two hours of air. It probably needs four. At 2 hours it still a little high octane and disjointed. Around four hours melllows into a complex integrated very full bodied but relatively smooth wine.

Lots of red fruit. Emerging character, especially a string floral note. Nice mouthfeel. Good finish. Very enjoyable to drink and with a few more years, should be quite complex.
