| Jeffrey Grossett picks a small crop from his Gaia vineyard, which located on a hillside far above the rest of the Clare Valley, making it quite possibly, the coolest site in the whole region. The vineyard is highly exposed to the elements and set on a bed of slate. Yields are therefore low but the quality of the resultant fruit is sensational...... |

| This has always been a serious wines. What does that mean? Well some wines you can easily knock back a glass or two, even finish the bottle without realizing that you have been drinking it, however as soon a you take one sip of the Gaia you are forced to take notice and contemplate the wine. Grapes grow, actually they battle for life in this high altitude vineyard, the highest in the Clare Valley. The yields are low because the vineyard has lots of slate and is dry grown...... |

| Few wine lovers in Australia would argue with this wine's lofty reputation as the finest example of the Riesling variety produced in the country. This reputation has been established prior to this exciting wine, which in Jeff Grosset's most humble manner well be his finest Riesling to date...... |

|
| How can the Clare Valley possibly repeat the great success of the 1997 vintage, regarded by many as one of the greatest years for Riesling ever? Whether 1998 will be as widely acclaimed remains to be seen. However, the master of Riesling, Jeffrey Grossett, has produced his 1998 "Polish Hill" and at this youthful stage it is more attractive drinking than the 1997...... |

Chardonnay |
|
| Now firmly established as Australia’s master of Riesling, Jeffrey Grossett has, in recent years turned his attention to towards Chardonnay in order to make another great white wine. The fruit is sourced from a vineyard in Piccadilly, in the Adelaide Hills. Here the climate is cooler than Jeffrey’s Riesling vineyards in the Clare Valley, as the altitude is slightly higher and the prevailing weather patterns moderated by the maritime influence of Port Lincoln...... |

| Words simply fail to convey the unique positioning of the Gaia vineyard. This is the highest vineyard in the Clare, hidden on 5,000ft graziers property. You will never find it alone!! A very unforgiving growing location for the vines. They have toi work hard to reach down through broken slate to find nutrients...... |

|
| From the contemporary ‘King” of Australian Riesling comes yet another great vintage of Polish Hill. The bouquet delivers lemon and lime characters, with a slightly dusty/floral nuance. On the palate you are confronted by the laser like precision of the wine. Mineral notes support all of the fruit, and the acid holds it all together. Beautifully well defined flavors in a lean, long framework...... |

Beautifully ripe cool climate fruit delivers both rich peach and apricot characters, as well higher tone melon and apple notes. Immensely complex wine, and yet in no way overbearing...... |
