"The aromatics are quintessential Clare riesling - intense and pure lemon lime, with depth on the mid-palate: mouth-puckering, fine, and lingering on a long, sumptuous finish. Thanks to a cool season, biodynamic farming and the unique site of red loam-over-limestone (and slate), the typical generosity expressed by this wine is enhanced by fresh, powerful varietal characteristics." - Winemaker Notes
"Spicy, yeasty, grapefruit-pith, fresh and reserved aromas, bright and nascent, the palate soft and grapy, rounded and easygoing but somewhat short on drive. This is a baby and will be so much more interesting in a year or two, minimum. Plenty of potential." - 95 Points, Huon Hooke, The Real Review
"Polish Hill has this covered but this is still a fabulous Springvale Riesling. It’s an interesting wine, driven by lemon and lime as you would expect but with anise, marshmallow and pretty floral characters floating about. The anise is almost into red licorice territory, which seems bizarre in a riesling, but it’s definitely there, like a lurker to the forum of citrus and tonic water. Grosset has been a star producer for all the time I’ve been in wine but right now its wines are as good or better than they’ve ever been." - 95 Points, Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front
