Polish Hill Clare Valley Riesling 2013

Mid yellow in colour. Musky notes with a little talc - white and yellow flowers. On the palate lovely ripe peach flavours. Incredible flavour intensity. Irresistible. Low acid. Definitely one of Australia’s best dry Rieslings. No notes of TDN. Have the last one in a year or two. See previous Delectable note 6 years ago in June 2018 when it was carrying more citric acid. — 2 months ago

@Bob McDonald, yes it is. Gaia isn’t tho. It’s a real shame because there’s been a pull-back on Aussie wines in the U.S. Over 20 years ago, the market was flooded with Aussie wines, many sub par. Now Aussie wines occupy a small space on the shelves over here.

Peggy's Hill Eden Valley Riesling 2022

I believe this is my first time with a Henschke white. Intense citrusy nose along with florals and undertones of petro (nothing even close to a Grosset). A very zesty palate of some orchard fruit and plenty of acid. A moderate finish that I expect will extend once things better integrate. I assume like many Australian rieslings this will age , Is that a valid statement @Bob McDonald ? — 6 months ago

@Ira Schwartz Over the weekend I tasted the full range of Henschke cuvées with Stephen and Pru Henschke and a group of wine lovers. Julius is their top Riesling from the Eden Valley and then Peggy’s. Both could easily age 10 plus years. Some fruit for Peggy’s is sourced from other growers. Eden Valley (home of Hill of Grace and Mount Edelstone) is one of the best districts for Riesling in Australia.

Pewsey Vale Vineyard

1961 Block Single Vineyard Estate Eden Valley Riesling 2017

Family home for Christmas so these are brief notes. From a block of vines planted in 1961. A dry style but showing more fulsome flavours than the usual lime/lemon citrus. I actually enjoyed this as much as the Grosset Springvale. — 2 years ago

Undhof Kögl Riesling Reserve 2009

Mid Lemon in colour. Peachey flavours with a bitter finish. Full and luscious but finishes dry with 13.5% Alcohol. Nice to drink after the Grosset to compare. The following day honeyed notes. Delicious and uniquely European. — 6 years ago
