Light, bright lemon-yellow colour and a subtle, reserved bouquet of lemon, almond, honey and subtle smoky, buttery croissant overtones. The wine is refined and intense in the mouth, with a winning combination of drive and subtlety. The line and length are impeccable and it promises to reward cellaring. Delicious now, too.

— Huon Hooke, The Real Review, 96 Points

Nectarine, ripe lime, cashew and nougat, sweet spices and cedar, just a flicker of aniseed. It’s a flavoursome wine, bold in its delivery of classic Adelaide Hills flavour, but has excellent control and shape, with flinty strikes to the texture, and bright citrus acidity on a gently creamy finish of excellent length. Also, maybe some candied lime rind in the mix too. Very good.

Grosset Wines is a renowned independent winery, dedicated to crafting seven exceptional premium wines with each vintage. By maintaining a small-scale, focused operation, Grosset has preserved the distinctive character of its wines, earning a stellar international reputation. Known for their purity and exceptional quality, these wines consistently set the standard in their respective categories.

For over three decades, Grosset has remained true to its philosophy: focusing on the purity of fruit and ensuring that every bottle delivers an unadulterated expression of the vineyard. The estate vineyards, certified organic by the ACO, are meticulously managed by hand, with grapes harvested at their optimal ripeness. Through disciplined practices and a deep well of knowledge accumulated over many years, Grosset Wines continues to deliver some of the finest expressions of Australian wine, with each bottle reflecting the unique terroir from which it originates.

The 2022 vintage is 100% Chardonnay (multiple clones including 76 and I10V1) grown in the Piccadilly Valley, Adelaide Hills. Jeffrey Grosset made his Piccadilly chardonnays and pinot noirs for many years from the Barratt vineyard, until it changed hands. He’s used The Deanery vineyard for this vintage, and while there’s less wine, the quality has certainly been maintained. The Deanery vineyard sits beneath Mt Lofty and adjacent to Cleland National Park and the Botanical Gardens, this has developed into a classic Piccadilly Valley vineyard.
