Grosset Alea Off-Dry Riesling 2017
Pristine, fresh and juicy, with a faintly tropical bouquet of green apple, lime juice and white flowers. ItÕs round and juicy, with a generous expression of brightly lit, vivacious fruit underpinned by a fine dustiness that extends long and measured towards a refreshing but off-dry finish wrapped in lemony acidity. Artfully balanced, but could have used more texture.

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.
