Riesling

One of the world's great grape varieties and the acknowledged king of German vineyards, also important in Alsace, Riesling goes through a number of ripening phases making it incredibly varied. Picked early it can form a base wine for Methode Champenoise; a little later, it makes a wonderfully crisp, aromatic lemon-lime filled dry white. A little riper the grapes produce an excellent, slightly sweet 'Spatlese' wine, later again an 'Auslese', and so on. In Australia, crisp, minerally, citrus-led styles dominate, with regions like South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia producing the finest examples. Fish, shellfish and crustaceans are perfect partners.

2023 O’Leary Walker Polish Hill River Riesling

Clare Valley, South Australia, AUSTRALIA
$25. 99
Bottle
$311.88 Dozen

Cellar: Drink now - 8 Years (2023-2031)

ABV: 12%

Closure: Stelvin

Fruit for this superb Polish Hill River Riesling is sourced from Martin and Joan Smith and Molloy's vineyards which are virtually located next to each other. Despite growing these vines organically since their planting in the 1970’s, 2010 marked the first year of NASAA Organic Certification. Both vineyards consistently produce top quality fruit which highlights the excellence of this Clare Valley sub-region.
A pulsating, pure concentrate of Riesling that showcases Polish Hill River’s trademark steely structure.
Brilliant water like to very pale straw coloured core with distinct highlights of green around the edges. Soaring out of the glass are intense lime and citrus aromas followed by some orange rind, green apple, chalky talc and steely mineral notes. Mouth watering lime, lemon and green apple flavours are tightly wound and steely across the palate yet there is undeniable power here. Orange rind, chalky mineral, talc and wet steel characters linger through the back half. Sizzling acidity leads into a long, crunchy and pulsating finish. A Stunning Polish Hill River Riesling.
Drink over the next 6-8 years.

Oh my. How good is this? This is the essence of Polish Hill River Riesling: the concentration of fruit, the depth, the texture, the spice, the quiet power. It’s all here. Just released and ready to be savoured and enjoyed. Jasmine, bergamot, citrus, grapefruit, a sprinkle of rosemary and white pepper aromas. How intriguing are those spices! Grown under organic methods, it brings extraordinary depth of citrus (grapefruit, Meyer lemon), green apple and lime zest married to an equally impressive depth of background spice, including earthy ginger and a light shake of white pepper. Acidity is well-honed with a mineral clean edge. This is what Polish Hill River Riesling is all about. Drink 2023-2037.

A superb Clare vintage, yet again, with a long and cool growing season. The vineyards, located next to each other, have been certified as organic since 2010. Gleaming pale yellow, there are strong citrus notes here. Lemons, limes and grapefruits, along with a gentle spicy touch and backed by cool river stones. This is finely balanced, focused and with such impressive length. A line of acidity runs the length. This can be enjoyed over the next ten to fifteen years, but well cellared, could go twenty to thirty. A stunning Riesling and simply extraordinary value. Buy it by the case.

Ken Gargett – WinePilot.com
Why is Riesling the best value wine in Australia? Crack this for $30 and you'll sit bolt upright. What a blistering wine we have here! So aromatic and so steely, all the best bits of a quality Riesling are here in a very tidy package. Bath salts, white flowers, Bickford's lime cordial and lemon juice reach for your favour along with a flicker of grapefruit. Green apple peel slides in late and right on cue. Like the Watervale, the shimmer of soft spices comes late but the citrusy tang is real. The expected river stone minerality and chalk feels arrive on cue to close. It's absolutely delicious and I just want more. Drink now to embrace the freshness but this will age beautifully.

Steve Leszczynski – Qwine Reviews
Mineral-savoury start with wet stones, flint, brown limes and sage. Flavours are a pleasant continuation, full and round, filled with fleshy nectarines and pears in the middle, slightly grilled. Grapefruit finish with a dusting of pepper and nutmeg spice. I really enjoy the structure and texture of this wine, it has weight and detail. Feels like a whole wine, with front middle and back, confident and very well made. It’s a great deal of satisfaction. Drink 2023-2033+

Kasia Sobiesiak - WineFront
Very intense and generous bouquet of mixed flowers, super-fragrant and scented, the palate likewise intense and bracingly dry with a touch of tannin augmenting the mouth-watering dryness. It's almost searingly crisp and intense, rapier-sharp and long-lasting. Quartzy mineral nuances. Very long carry. It will richly reward cellaring.

Light straw-green; all the cliches: classic, pure, etc, can be legitimately used for this beautifully balanced mouthful of lime, lemon and citrus zest, underwritten by minerally acidity on its lingering finish - and its long future. Drink by 2023.

Other Reviews….
I am just loving these 2021 Clare Valley Rieslings, almost universally across the board. Any winemaker in the region who got this wrong should be condemned to make only warm climate, young vine Sauvignon Blanc for the rest of their natural life. Of course, some guys will inevitably do it better than others and it will come as no surprise that Dave O’Leary and Nick Walker are right at the top of the tree. And at $30 each, the value for both these Rieslings is almost criminal. A case for now, a case for the cellar.
This is green with pale gold throughout. Beautifully aromatic with spices, kaffir limes, hints of grapefruit, some minerals if you look hard enough and floral notes. A wine which is textbook and stunning. The palate is intense with great length and immaculate balance. It is perhaps a fraction more generous than the nose suggested, but nothing wrong with that. A Riesling which is cracking now and has a decade ahead of it. Drink 2022-2032.

A long, cool ferment over 2 weeks. This is awesome. Such density of flavour on the palate; mouth-coating intensity – it's almost painful. An absolute burster for the price. It'll drink beautifully right now, and it will still be going in a decade hence. The saline acidity leaves a quest for more in the mouth. Yes. Drink by 2031.

A strikingly fresh and powerful Polish Hill River Riesling.

Brilliant very pale straw colour with a light greenish tinge skirting around the rim and a watery hue. Nosing offers up intense lime, citrus and orange rind aromatics which are trailed by talc and steely mineral notes. On the palate there’s excellent tension between all of the components, a powerful core of lemon and lime fruits is backed by steely mineral infused acidity with elements of orange rind and chalky talc also evident.

Riesling from the River, the Polish Hill River.
There isn’t a great deal of difference between this and the Watervale save for the fact that the flavour profile here sits on the pebblier side of the equation. It’s like river stones in a stream of citrus and sorbet. It still has fruit, it still pushes, it goes towards pulp, it goes towards texture. It feels both taut and as if it’s itching not to be; it’s itching to get out and run. Drink 2021-2027+

Coal River Valley. Something of a Germanic character to this wine, in both texture and flavour profile, plus that kiss of sweetness it carries. Stonefruit, green mango, lavender, rock salt and cheese sticks. To taste, more to grapefruit and fresh apricot, fine powdery texture, with a flavoursome and gently savoury finish of excellent length. Interesting. Very good. Drink 2024 – 2033.

Bright straw colour with flecks of green to the edges and a watery hue. Sailing through the nostrils are intense lime and citrus aromas which meld into oily toast like notes, faint dried honey and steely kerosene like characters. Concentrated lime and citrus fruits overlay a back drop of lemon butter, oily kerosene like characters and a delicate steely mineral element. Full and round texturally it finishes dry with a crisp edge to the acidity and a long rich aftertaste.

Other Reviews.....
At 7 years of age this is showing an enthusiastic lemon hue in the glass. On the nose it is layered with lanolin, beeswax, cheesecloth, preserved citrus and brine. In the mouth, the wine has morphed into a nectar-like experience (not sweet, but unctuous). It is opulent and austere at once. A real pleasure. Recommend. Drink by 2037.

Other Reviews....
Well, well, well, it’s not all about cabernet in Coonawarra after all, says I back to the senior wine man from Coonawarra that assured me that cabernet is the future of the region, a few years ago. Here’s Patrick’s riesling skin fermented, or portions are, in drastically amazing packaging, albeit retailers will whinge about stacking, but go with it, don’t discourage!
Smells like white vermouth, clove, lemony citrus fruit and blossom. Texture shows some grip, flavours of lime, lemon myrtle, ginger, almost like a herbal tea or tonic. Spicy, herbal, long and very refreshing. The skin contact textural elements are quite mild, the wine presenting a bit like a grippy riesling (vermouth!) with savouriness. It’s delicious. Drink 2021 - 2022.

Don't put this in the cellar, under the stairs or anywhere else other than in a glass. It's ready now revealing a raft of gorgeous aged characters from lime marmalade on buttered toast to lemon semolina cake. Fine acidity and great length.

This is a delicious riesling, a true rendition of the variety, courtesy of a blend of Rose's lime juice, Meyer lemon, passionfruit and Granny Smith apple held in a fine web of acidity. Time will bring change, but it's a purely personal decision to drink it now or later. Best have a bob each way. Drink by 2035.

Founded in 1983 by Neil and Alison Paulett, son Matt is now at the helm of this highly acclaimed Clare Valley winery. Best known for their Polish Hill River Riesling, the 2022 vintage is one of their best yet – zesty, intensely flavoured and structured.

Soaring out of the glass are intense lime and citrus aromatics followed by notions of green apple, orange rind, talc and steely mineral notes. Mouth watering lime and citrus fruits drive the racy palate backed by orange rind, granny smith apple, chalky talc and steely mineral infused acidity.

Other Reviews....
A tightly wound, classic Clare expression. It's nervy and ultra-refreshing, crisp and very dry. Scents of lemongrass, lime juice and green apple with flavours similarly echoing the bouquet. Concentrated but still flinty and lighter in weight. Mouth-watering and intense, it's a pristine and very direct offering, mainlining the quintessential, regional style. Great drinking now, but should age gracefully. Drink by 2040.

Brilliant very pale straw colour with vivid green tinged edges and a watery hue. Exotically scented nose with rosewater, pear and lychee aromas jumping from the glass. Lime, orange blossom and mineral notes are also evident. Wonderfully concentrated and mouth filling yet zippy, the palate is awash with pear, lychee and rosewater flavours that are quite similar to Gewurztraminer. Bristling with crisp acidity, infusions of orange blossom, red apple and an energised minerality lie underneath. Long scrumptious off dry finish.

Other Reviews….
The 2024 Riesling is juicy and rounded, with a caress that reminds me of a Spätlese. It’s medium-sweet yet delicate with an almost powdery texture. Residual sugar has rounded its edges and padded out its light body. The finish, however, is succulent and textured, with a combination of firm acidity and phenolics providing the brush to sweep this up and hold it firmly in place. Aromas of apricots, lilac, freshly cooked orange, celery and the merest hint of spice linger on the fragrant finish. Drink 2025-2036.

From the Koerner family's Gullyview vineyard. Notable for its concentration of flavour, a big tick to start, freshness and general sense of vitality. It feels like a lot is going on in its compact textural space, with juicy red apples, ginger, green mango, quince and lime. Fresh as can be, frisky and yet a quiet savouriness under it all lending some charisma and counterbalance to the zing of that tangy acid. Immediately likeable, is the message, and a strong and distinct regional character, too. A winner. Drink by 2035.

Pear and perfume, lime, fennel and spice. Here’s a riper and rounder expression of Clare Riesling, though it still has a bit of crunch and energy, fine powdery texture, a bit nutty, with green apple and ginger flavour, and a long and dusty finish. Very nice. A heap of interest.

I love the pristine and vibrant nose of pink grapefruit, passion fruit and lime zest that pulls you inexorably into this super-racy Clare Valley dry riesling that leaps and bounds over the palate, then shoots off into outer space at the very long and energetic finish. Only just beginning a very long life. A milestone for this producer! Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Riesling in Australia.

Riesling is thought to have been introduced to New South Wales in the 1830s by the Macarthur's (pioneers of the Australian wool industry). German settlers brought the variety to the Barossa Valley in South Australia in the 1850's where the grape flourished. It's since found many new homes, such as Mt. Barker in Western Australia, the Clare Valley in South Australia, as well as Central and Southern Victoria. A tightrope of fruit and racy acidity when young, age-worthy examples develop honey and toast characteristics, sometimes accompanied by a distinct 'kerosene' note. Generally suited to cooler climates, examples from Grosset, Petaluma, Wilson Polish Hill, Dukes, Western Australia and Best's Great Western, Victoria are all worth seeking out.
