Tasting Note

The 2021 Grosset 'Gaia' shows the benefit of low yields in the intensity of its flavours, power, and the promise its holds for its future. There are vibrant bramble, blackcurrant, and dark cherry aromas, before a palate which shows power, weight and depth of flavour. The tannins are fine and elegant.

Product Notes

The Grosset Gaia Clare Valley Cabernet Sauvignon/Cabernet Franc is a remarkable blend; striking a harmonious balance of robustness and elegance. Exhibiting a plush crimson hue, the nectar reveals earthy notes of red berry, cassis, and tobacco leaf on the nose. Generous in depth, the palate is an orchestra of ripe, black fruits enveloped in fine tannins and whispers of oak. Its complexity sings a fabled story of the Clare Valley terrain, harnessing a characteristically long, dry finish. Perfectly paired with grilled red meats, a bottle of this exquisite wine promises a memorable dining experience. A testament to Australian viticulture, indeed.
