Grosset Alea Riesling 2024
This is the fifteenth vintage of the ‘European’ style from the Grosset Rockwood Vineyard with its hard red rock and poor orange/red loam soil. This delivers impressive depth of flavour in the mid-palate, pronounced lime and lemony flavours that are intense and deep, finishing almost bone-dry with purity and finesse; same variety, yet a quite different and fascinating alternative to Grosset Polish Hill.

Nose:
Floral scents of frangipani and lemon blossom with candied ginger, lime juice, just-ripe pineapple and tonic water.
Palate:
The palate is soft and fruity with perhaps a faint dab of sweetnes that leavens the acidity and any sense of austerity, rendering the wine very approachable already and quite delicious in its extreme youth. Great balance and mouth-feel.
