Grosset
Polish Hill Clare Valley Riesling
Clare Valley, Mount Lofty Ranges, South Australia, Australia
Fresh and pristine even at 10 years of age. Arguably Australia’s best Riesling - certainly in the top 3. Aromatics of lime juice with a tiny hint of TDN (paraffin in this case) and a hint of honey. Overall ultra pure with M+ intensity and a touch of peach on the palate. This could be confidentally cellared for another 5 years for added complexity. Dry Riesling doesn’t get much better than this.

Oct 1st, 2026Still very young. Orange blossom, rubber, key limes, lemon and tarragon. Medium plus acid and not quite as taught as it once was. Great producer sure, but better rieslings our there for the bucks. Like to see if this would go in a blind line up.

Dec 24th, 2025Good but not as good as it could have been because it hadn’t improved with age - still fresh and excellent Riesling but expected more development for 5 years
