So many people contact me about #organicwine here in Australia. It’s becoming more and more popular and I can definitely see why after tasting this beauty!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I received this bottle of Grosset 2016 Apiana in a recent #sample pack of the new Cellarmasters Organic Wine Club. You can read more about it on the blog (link in profile).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Grosset Wines is an independently owned winery in South Australia’s Clare Valley. The ‘Apiana’ is a white wine blend that is made from 60% Semillon and 40% Fiano. And wow, this wine stole my palate!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In the glass, it’s a yellow-green pear juice like colour. The nose is crisp and fresh with hints of flowers and herbs alongside apples, pears and candied lemon. In the mouth, it’s 100% moreish with a juicy zippy nature full of flavoursome lemon and pear notes. This is an absolutely gorgeous wine and has gone straight to my top 10 list for 2018!

All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy! #tcweekdaywine

Seamless blend of Fiano and Semillon.
The team at Grosset Wines make liquid gold.
You know about the Riesling but everything else is next level.

I struggle with Fiano, though this blend is not bad - basil on the nose and nice fullness on the palate - interesting that this is the 5th year that this wine has been made, but only released in 2 years - ?fickle Fiano
