Description

This high-powered Fiano offers remarkable structure and a captivating array of aromatics. It boasts voluminous floral notes, hints of honey, and subtle almond undertones, creating an enticing bouquet that beckons exploration. In the mid-palate, it reveals a tight and full-bodied character that lingers, leaving an exceptionally appealing impression. With its powerful yet fresh profile, this wine is a true reflection of cool-site Fiano, and a brief skin contact has enhanced its distinctive qualities. The finish is marked by a tantalizingly tense juiciness, compelling you to savor each successive sip.

Without doubt, the name Grosset is associated with premium wine. while Riesling is the first variety that usually comes to mind, Jeff has certainly made a name for himself with other varieties also, including Pinot noir, Chardonnay and Shiraz.

Jeffrey Grosset was 15 when his father (an electrician) came home with a bottle of wine and shared it with the family. It was riesling and Jeffrey was gobsmacked. The rest is history. Jeffrey enrolled at Roseworthy Agricultural College on his 16th birthday, completing both Agriculture and Oenology courses by the age of 21.

Review

Light green-yellow colour with dominant new-wine yeastiness on the nose, the palate rich and full, soft and round, fruity but seems near-dry although the acidity is also very soft. Straightforward and pretty: will it build more complexity as it develops.
