"Very deep and very bright young red-purple colour, that stains the glass. There are fresh, youthful, almost raw aromas of raspberry, cassis, blackberry and briar, beautifully ripened, the palate very concentrated, dense and full-bodied but not over- the-top. It's powerful, concentrated and backed by a welter of firm tannins, but doesn't sacrifice its elegance. This is a tightly packed, dense and focused cabernet that deserves a decent term in the cellar. It's just a baby today." - Huon Hooke
"Jeffrey Grosset established the isolated and windswept Grosset Gaia Vineyard in 1986. Planted at an elevation of 560 metres, it is the highest vineyard in the Clare Valley. Produced from 100% estate grown cabernet sauvignon (95%) and cabernet franc (5%).
Grosset Gaia from the cooler 2022 vintage shows impressive generosity and balance – the hallmarks of this wine for more than three decades. It has positive aromatics, gentle at first, then assertive; there are all the vibrant briary, brambly notes that you would expect. There's a brooding quality about the wine that demands close inspection. It is satiny smooth, tight and fine, but displaying its bright blackcurrant, dark liqueur cherry, blackberry, bramble flavours that are deep, satisfying and long." - Grosset
