Grosset Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 2005
Delicate lemony, buttery and lightly grassy aromas of melon and gooseberry, citrus and tropical fruit precede a smooth and fleshy palate that finishes nutty and savoury, dry and refreshing. It might lack a little punch and impact, but offers a pleasing length of fruit punctuated by smooth acids.

Grosset
Grosset is rightly known the world over for the spectacular quality and charm of its two key individual vineyard rieslings, the Polish Hill and the Springvale, both of which are graded with a Five Star rating, the only pair of rieslings from a single maker to achieve this level of recognition. While Grosset's current releases are all of genuine style and quality, I'm paying particular attention to the 2012 Gaia cabernet blend, which is by far the best wine under this label for many a year.
