This Riesling is exclusively sourced from the Springvale Vineyard, known for its unique geology, relative seclusion, and elevated position. Acquired in 2000 and planted in 2001, the vineyard features a thin layer of red loam over limestone with deeply rooted vines in slate bedrock—a rarity for the area. A geological fault line along the eastern edge further defines the vineyard, which has remained unchanged for hundreds of millions of years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vineyard is A-Grade Certified Organic and Biodynamic (ACO). Soil remains undisturbed, and the closely planted vines (2,500 per hectare) are hand-tended. Two Riesling clones, one common German and one rare German variety, thrive here, producing compact yellow-green grape clusters. With an average yield of two-and-a-half bottles per vine, the grapes are hand-harvested to ensure quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe surrounding land has been restored to native vegetation, enhancing biodiversity and promoting natural pest and disease control. Vineyard rows are strategically oriented to maximize sunlight exposure, reflecting meticulous care in cultivating exceptional Riesling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile Polish Hill sets the benchmark, the Springvale Riesling stands out as a remarkable wine in its own right. Expect the familiar citrus punch of lemon and lime, but also intriguing notes of anise, marshmallow, and delicate floral tones. Unusually, the anise hints veer toward red licorice—a surprising twist in a Riesling—hovering in the background like an observer in a lively citrus and tonic water gathering. Grosset continues to shine as a leading producer, delivering wines that are arguably at their peak. This Springvale Riesling earns a confident 95 points, with potential for a 96. -\u003cstrong\u003eWine Front\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52736112034155,"sku":"SK26434491","price":54.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/5483\/8635\/files\/2025GrossetSpringvaleRiesling_ClareValley_Australia.jpg?v=1767587111"},{"product_id":"2025-grosset-polish-hill-riesling-1-5l-magnum","title":"2025 Grosset Polish Hill Riesling 1.5L Magnum","description":"\u003cp\u003ePackage: 1.5L Magnum bottle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Polish Hill for the ages – wonderfully aromatic and intensely fragrant, this 2025 vintage delivers full-throttle power while maintaining the vineyard’s signature finesse.

Known for the elusiveness of its wines in the marketplace, the winery has cult status with the portfolio only released to an exclusive mailing list. The Wendouree property is more than 100 years old and its current owners, Tony and Lita Brady, have run the estate since 1974. The original stone winery at the estate is still used for production and Wendouree's 12 hectare (30 acre) vineyard is planted to old vine Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Mataro, and Muscat of Alexandria – most of which was planted in the late 1890s to early 1900s. The Wendouree vineyard is dry farmed and grapes are handpicked. In the winery, wines are fermented with indigenous yeasts in open-top, stainless-steel fermenters. Post-ferment, French oak barrels are sourced for aging for up to 12 months. The winery produces around 2000 cases annually of varietal and blended wines including Shiraz Mataro, Shiraz Malbec, and Cabernet Malbec. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cmslanding__image-desc\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52736134152555,"sku":"SK95510231","price":299.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/5483\/8635\/files\/2006_Wendouree_Shiraz_750ml_9dc63a42-bdd3-45b8-9bc7-36320e9aeccf.jpg?v=1767587750"}],"url":"https:\/\/kingsburycellars.com.au\/collections\/clare-valley.oembed?page=9","provider":"Kingsbury Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
