Exceptional Langtons Classification. Grosset is an exceptionally powerful and vibrant dry Riesling, drinking beautifully whilst young, the style is unwaveringly Polish Hill. Layer after layer of flavour, impeccable balance, and mighty yet controlled power. The new MW Classification of Australian wines rates the Grosset Polish Hill as the epitome of Australian Riesling. Riesling grapes are sourced solely from the Grosset Polish Hill Vineyard, very much in the style that followers of Grosset have learned to expect. A vineyard that has been yielding not just a wine, but a highly sophisticated style of Riesling, every year since inaugural release. Planted at 460 metres above sea level on sandy loam over shallow clay with underlying gravel, shale and slate, the Grosset Polish Hill parcels are producing one of Australia's great wines. Careful work in the vineyard, especially a painstaking thinning of fruit, yields the most pristine harvest. The glint in his eyes will tell you that Jeff Grosset believes he has once again delivered a great Polish Hill Riesling.
TASTING NOTESLimpid light straw colour. Coiled steeliness and pristine varietal character, restraint, tightness of structure and zingy minerally acidity. Whatever your preference, it's all there. There's a restrained savouriness, a hint of lime blossom, intense and ultra-concentrated schisty, sea shell minerally flavours that are pure, long and deep, tight steely structure and long taut finish that lingers, satisfying dry. |
