Grosset Polish Hill Riesling 2015

An exemplary wine, perhaps with more character and individuality at this age than most Polish Hills. Its piercing and faintly spicy bouquet of lime, lemon and sweet floral notes reveals notes of citrus rind, gunflint and minerals. It’s long and very dry, with a powerful, explosively concentrated presence of fruit that delivers an almost chardonnay-like fatness before culminating in an austere, smoky finish of exceptional length, savoury quality and focus. Perhaps the finest wine under this label? With more bottle age it is evolving superbly as predicted – showing some beautiful smoky and toasty complexity and more of an emphasis of minerality and brine at the finish.

Grosset
Grosset is rightly known the world over for the spectacular quality and charm of its two key individual vineyard rieslings, the Polish Hill and the Springvale, both of which are graded with a Five Star rating, the only pair of rieslings from a single maker to achieve this level of recognition. While Grosset's current releases are all of genuine style and quality, I'm paying particular attention to the 2012 Gaia cabernet blend, which is by far the best wine under this label for many a year.
