Wilson’s Polish Hill River Riesling is sourced from their oldest vineyards planted 40 years ago. Its miniscule yields typically produce a wine rich in citrus fruits within a steely structure and tight with lots of minerality. After the cool and damp 2017 vintage, 2018 produced a more classic Clare vintage.

A perfect synergy of electrifying lime and citrus fruit, steely structure and mouth watering acidity.

Brilliant very pale water like colour with a greenish tinged outskirts. Intense lime and citrus top notes overlay granny smith apple, subtle talc, wet steel and chalky mineral scents. Powerful and concentrated yet tight and steely, lemon and lime flavours fill the mouth, underpinned by elements of green apple, wet steel and a chalky minerality. Finishes dry with mouth watering acidity and an exceptionally long and penetrating aftertaste.
Drink now or cellar 6-8 years.
