2014 Wilson Polish Hill River Riesling

There are two sub-regions that consistently produce the best wines from Clare, Polish Hill River and Watervale. The interesting part is that the primary fruit aromas and flavours from Watervale are completely different to those from Polish Hill River. Polish Hill River Rieslings tend to be more restrained, tighter and have a finer delicacy in the mouth whereas the Watervale Rieslings generally have more upfront generosity and luscious fruit intensity.

Brilliant very pale straw colour with greenish tinged edges and a watery hue. The nose shows more restraint than the Watervale with scents of lemon and lime followed by orange rind, talc and mineral. Also tighter in structure on the palate yet still very concentrated delivering concentrated flavours of lime and citrus over some talc and steely mineral. Clean crisp acid finish with a long lime, citrus, talc and steely mineral aftertaste.
Cellar 6-8 years.
Alc 12%
