    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. Ageing Potential: Drink now – 20 years Produced from riesling grown biodynamically at the Grosset Rockwood Vineyard Unfined- vegan and vegetarian friendly

    Award:
    Alea holds some additional sweetness as its canon. There's an appealing and ultra-high drinkability here. Charm in spades. Floral scents of frangipani and lemon blossom with candied ginger, lime juice, just-ripe pineapple and tonic water. Similar to taste with a slipperiness to texture that feels well metered by the building crispness of the finish. More tonic and pleasing, quinine-like bitterness in juicy lime, red apple, pineapple and gingery flavours, too. Even, balanced, cool fringes and an appealing, transparent glassiness overall.  95 Points Mike Bennie, Halliday Wine Companion
