Grosset Polish Hill Riesling 2024
Certified Organic & Biodynamic
So much more power & persistence on the palate. And all the slatey minerality ? wet stones again. Tighter through the palate with a totally different structure. WOW! Polish Hill wins by a whisker. Ian Cook, FWC.
Exceptional concentration of fruit flavour here. This is straight and direct but wow it has a charge to it. Lime, chalk, white flower and wet slate flavours storm through the palate in emphatic fashion. There?s an extra note to the finish that I can?t quite place but I?ll call it brine splashed on potpourri splashed on rocks. The longer I sit and taste this wine the more I think that this is a Grosset riesling for the ages. Drink 2025-2044+. 97 points, Campbell Mattinson, Wine Front.
This needs no introduction; safe to say, this is one of the most delicious young releases of this wine. Immediate appeal in abundant jasmine floral lift, green apple fruitiness, soft lime elements, ginger cake, blackcurrant touches and a wellspring of saline minerality. There's a juiciness, though strict ribbons of pulverised pumice and granitic mineral character find chew and pucker here, too. In all that, the intensity is somewhat dialled down while drinkability is through the roof. No matter, the character shifts each year in degree; it's a stellar wine, full of inimitable character and a finesse that Grosset does so well. Drink to 2040. 97 Points. Mike Bennie, Halliday?s Wine Companion.
