Australia's Riesling Pioneer

Grosset Wines is an independent and privately owned winery that produces eight different top wines each vintage it is allowed. Grosset was founded in 1981, in the historic, small town of Auburn in the Clare Valley, part of South Australia. The vineyards consist of four estate-owned vineyards, all of which are located north of the winery in high-altitude vineyard sites. All sites are organically certified and all fruit is hand-picked and transported to the winery in Auburn, which is also organically certified. Grosset has capped its production at 11,000 cases of 12 bottles. These wines come mainly from the 22 hectares of vineyards they own. They export only 25% of their production, yet Grosset Wines has developed an international profile of wines that a consensus audience judges to be great wines and benchmark in their respective genres.
