Grosset Springvale Riesling 1997
Light toast, honey and butter aromas are beginning to infiltrate the intense lemon rind and dried flower aromas of this brightly flavoured, long and fleshy riesling. Unusually powerful for a Watervale, it’s superbly focused around pure riesling fruit. Rich and distinctly viscous, it finishes dry and clean.

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.
