"Tangy lemon zest, a little salt and floral perfume, lots of talc-like texture, perhaps a little coarse, but such a good delivery of zesty citrus peel and tangy bite, that it’s very easy to like. Length is good. All the lime drizzled Riesling flavours here." - Wine Front
"Fruit harvested in the cool of the morning, destemmed, crushed then pressed. The free run juice is fractioned, settled and fermented cool until dryness. Adelina’s Polish Hill River Riesling is drawn from Lyn and Robert Jaeschke’s Hill River Estate, planted in 2000 at 460 metres above sea level on grey-brown loam over shale and sandy limestone.
Col’s preference is always to pick the fruit relatively early to retain acidity. Bone dry and just shy of 11%, it’s a more restrained release than the Watervale. Col notes that his wines from this site are getting finer every year, and this is a great example of the progression. Laser-guided wet stone, jasmine and lime skin on the nose give rise to a tightly coiled palate wrapped around a crystalline spine of acidity. An Australian Riesling of wonderful grace and class." - Winemaking Notes
