Grosset Polish Hill Riesling Clare Valley

Clare Valley, Australia
Grosset Polish Hill is Australia's greatest dry Riesling: from ancient Silurian slate soils on the steep Polish Hill sub-district, producing wine of extraordinary mineral intensity and longevity. Pale green-gold with lime zest, slate mineral, white flower, and a striking acidity that grips the palate. In youth the wine can seem austere — at 5-10 years it develops extraordinary complexity with kerosene, toast, and preserved citrus layers over the mineral spine. Australia's benchmark for Riesling aging potential.

Grosset Polish Hill's lime-mineral intensity and laser-sharp acidity achieves the classic Clare Valley fish pairing — freshwater trout with lemon butter. The wine's slate mineral bridges the fish's delicate flavour; lemon amplifies the Riesling's citrus character; capers provide salt that the wine's acidity integrates. A pairing that demonstrates why dry Clare Riesling is Australia's most versatile and food-compatible white wine.

complement
Grosset Polish Hill's high-acidity and lime character is the ideal foil for Thai green curry — the wine's citrus intensity amplifies the lime leaf in the curry paste; the slate mineral refreshes between spice-forward mouthfuls; the residual-sugar hint at young vintages bridges the chilli's heat. A pairing that reveals why Clare Riesling succeeds with Asian cuisine as well as German Spätlese, but with a distinctly Australian lime character.
