Grosset Polish Hill Riesling 2026

Grosset Polish Hill Riesling 2026

Riesling grown biodynamically at Grosset Polish Hill Vineyard (Polish Hill River sub-region), established in 1996 (30 years old).

Hand harvested, free run juice, with no fining. Planted on unyielding hard rock (slate), the site has always demanded hand-working and patience to match. The vines have responded by becoming more resilient and the grapes more expressive, both evident in this release.- Jeffrey Grosset

'Pink grapefruit, fresh lime, aniseed, thyme and assorted herbs, with something of a violet and lavender perfume. This is very stony and strict, a little grainy grip, light but intense with lime zest and perfume on a tight quinine-laced finish of excellent length. A classic vintage for this wine. Cool but perfectly formed.'  96 Points - Gary Walsh, The Wine Front

This is a fantastic expression of Polish Hill. It's very, very minerally, almost an alpine-river kind of feel, with wet slate, some aniseed, dashes of lime rind, pleasingly bitter green apple notes, wet fern and succulent pink grapefruit and talc through the finish. The perfume is a quiet cavalcade of jasmine florals, citrus fruit and alpine herbs. So sleek, trim and superiorly long and fine boned. It's got intensity and energy to burn. And it's so very thirst-quenching and refreshing. 96+ Points - Halliday Wine Companion
