Grosset Gaia Cabernet Blend 2007
A firm and structured cabernet blend whose confiture-like expression of raspberries, currants, prunes and redcurrant jelly just borders on the overcooked. Built atop a firm, fine and drying chassis, its palate does deliver sweet red and black berry and plum-like fruit, but dries out towards the raw and angular finish, with a meaty presence of baked flavour.

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.
