The 2022 Alea is a landmark Grosset vintage: complex, taut, pure and balanced. The unique characteristics of the Alea vineyard site have been exquisitely captured by a European winemaking approach. It has pristine lemon lime aromatics which entice. These are enhanced by a mouth-puckering intense palate which exhibits both finesse and power and a long and satisfying, chalky finish.

Aging Potential: Now to 20 years

The 2022 Alea Riesling is made from fruit grown at the Grosset Rockwood vineyard. This is the off-dry Riesling in the lineup, and I can tell you now, the sugar, the phenolics and the acidity are in a textural mesh of harmony in the mouth. There is a cross-hatch component to the mouthfeel, and it suspends the fruit over the tongue and out over the long finish. This is a really smart, composed, long (at this stage, quiet) and concentrated example of Clare Valley Riesling, proving Jeff Grosset is the master of the craft still. Yum.
