2022 Grosset Polish Hill Riesling

A brilliant water like core is circumferenced by distinctive highlights of green. Powerful lime, citrus and orange rind aromas drive the nose with notions of green apple, chalky talc, wet steel and some minerality also chiming in. More accessible than recent vintages of Polish Hill yet tightly coiled in comparison to the Springvale, the palate has an intense flavour profile of lime and citrus fruits which are complimented by some orange rind, crunchy green apple characters and talc. Taut with a steely mineral infused backbone of mouth-watering acidity lending slightly chalky feel. Outstanding concentration, energy and structure with an exceptionally long and focused finish.
Drink over the next 8-10 years.
Alc. 12.9%

Spectacular nose with a cornucopia of delicate citrus, stone-fruit and wildflower aromas. Then, a no less stunning combination of fruit and radically slate, flint and aniseed character. Very long finish with so much energy and great minerality. Excellent aging potential! From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Certified organic and biodynamic. As always, an intense and concentrated expression of Clare Valley riesling. Powerful scents of mixed citrus peel, lime essence, lemongrass and ozone with faint, exotic spice and blackberry characters in the mix. The palate delivers juiciness, brightness of flavour and a little powdery grip to finish. A little more diffuse than legendary releases of this wine, the 2022 vintage feels a bit more accessible in youth. A couple of years' grace before drinking would yield additional enjoyment. Drink by 2040.

The Polish Hill Riesling is muscular and defined in its structure and is routinely possessed of an authority and grace straight off the bat. This 2022 Polish Hill Riesling is mineral and fine, but phenolic and taut, too. The acidity creates tension and life in the mouth, and despite the wine being pristine, it is chalky and pithy, too. The Polish Hill Riesling has a decorated legacy and is prized for its longevity in the cellar. There have been mutterings of similarities between 2022 and the great and fabled 2002 vintage, boding very well indeed for the future of this wine. Riesling mainlines the dirt and takes us to place. This is why we gravitate toward great wine, to be taken to dirt, vineyard and region. Drink 2022 - 2042.

Tasted twice, once within a little vertical, and, well, just now in the comfort of my own home.
Saline, lime margarita, aniseed, lemongrass and floral notes. So intense, but pure, and quietly juicy with it, all the squeezed lime and freshness, with a very long chalky finish. An outstanding release. Such energy and vivacity. Zing! Drink 2023 - 2042.
