1997 Frankland Estate Riesling
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Riesling
The potential of this superb grape growing region is now being realized. Great Riesling has virtually been the sole domain of the Clare and Eden Valleys in South Australia, and rightfully so. However, the Lower Great Southern provides some worthy competition. Indeed this wine is a fine example of top quality Riesling that does not come from the traditional classic regions......

1997 Grosset "Polish Hill" Riesling
AUBURN, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
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......

1998 Grosset "Polish Hill" Riesling
AUBURN, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
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......

1997 Pikes Riesling
POLISH HILL RIVER, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
The consistency of this line of wines is staggering. The Clare Valley was blessed with damn near perfect ripening conditions for the 1997 harvest. It was warm in the summer but substantially cooler in the fall, but most importantly very dry as the grapes were going through the final stages of ripening. This enabled low yielding vines to produce very healthy grapes that were crammed with flavor......

1998 Pikes Riesling
POLISH HILL RIVER, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
The ’98 vintage was exemplary at Neil’s Polish Hill River Estate, and it shows in this wine......

1996 Pikes Reserve Riesling
POLISH HILL RIVER, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
As if Neil Pike's standard Riesling is not good enough. Well it is good enough, however every so often Neil receives a batch of fruit that is so exceptional in every way he is forced to keep it separate and release it as a "Reserve" wine......

1997 Pikes Reserve Riesling
POLISH HILL RIVER, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
Many of the wine critics in Australia have hailed 1997 in the Clare Valley as one of the greatest vintages ever for Riesling. High praise indeed, and certainly there have been some memorable wines. The vintage has produced wines with superior aging potential than is the norm, and with that objective in mind Neil Pike selected the best parcels of fruit for long term cellaring potential. The result is his Reserve Riesling and it is truly magnificent......

1999 Grosset "Polish Hill" Riesling
AUBURN, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
What a year 1998 turned out to be for Jeffrey Grosset. Named the inaugural winner of Australian Gourmet Traveller Winemaker of the Year, Jeffrey was also named the finest maker of Riesling by an international panel at the Riesling summit held in Germany in December 1998......

1999 Pikes Riesling
POLISH HILL RIVER, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
It would seem that there is no such thing as a bad, or even ordinary vintage for Clare Valley Riesling. The reds seem a little more variable, although the overall wine quality from Pikes is remarkably consistent. This vintage can be seen as triumphant for the Riesling......

1998 Pikes Reserve Riesling
POLISH HILL RIVER, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
The great beauty of the Riesling grape variety is that is the purest expression of the concept of "terroir" of all the premium grape varieties. Generally the wine is vinified in a similar manner. This means using cool ferments, protection from oxidization, and no oak or malo-lactic fermentation. This results in different parcels of fruit exhibiting different characteristics only because of their vineyard location......

1998 Frankland Estate "Isolation Ridge" Riesling
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
Limited January Release Case Size: 12/375ml Riesling
This wine has well and truly arrived. Over the past few years the wine has been very impressive and indeed if there is a region outside the Clare and Eden Valleys to equal the exquisite nature of Riesling then the Lower Great Southern is the most likely......

1999 Mount Horrocks Dry Riesling
WATERVALE, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
Clare Valley Riesling is probably one of Australia’s most consistent region and varietal combinations. The reds seem a little more variable, although the overall wine quality from Mt Horrocks is remarkably consistent. Not only are the Rieslings consistent they are also regarded without question as the finest examples of the variety produced in Australia. This vintage can be seen as triumphant for the Riesling......

2000 Grosset "Polish Hill" Riesling
POLISH HILL RIVER, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
Clearly this is now Australia’s most eagerly awaited Riesling. Each year the number of fans seems to grow although Jeffrey Grosset steadfastly refuses to compromise his great wine and include other vineyards in his wine......

2000 Mount Horrocks Riesling
WATERVALE, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
This only the second vintage to be released in the USA, displays very pale lemon gold colors with a slight tinge of green at the extremities. It is clear and bright and this is due to the wine’s youth and the high level of protection from oxygen during the winemaking process......

1999 Frankland Estate "Isolation Ridge" Riesling
FRANKLAND, GREAT SOUTHERN
SoldOut January Release Riesling
Judi Cullam and Barrie Smith are now firmly entrenched in the upper echelon of grape growing and winemaking teams in Australia. This is remarkable given the relatively short time they have had their vineyard planted in Western Australia’s Great Southern region. Established in 1988 the vineyards are now mature and producing better and more consistent fruit......

2000 Pikes Riesling
CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
This wine hasn’t got any flavors or nuances indicative of a difficult year, despite it being a difficult one. It is simply one of the best Rieslings Neil and Andrew Pike have produced. Care in the vineyard followed by care in the winery......

2001 Grosset "Polish Hill" Riesling
POLISH HILL RIVER, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
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......

2001 Mount Horrocks Dry Riesling
WATERVALE, CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
This the 3rd release of Stephanie Toole’s dry Riesling in the USA. Small production with generous flavors.

2001 Pikes Riesling
CLARE VALLEY
SoldOut January Release Riesling
Neil and Andrew Pike have yet again produced a superb dry Riesling. Neil’s idea has always been to have a dry Riesling that offers immediate pleasure. On the nose the wine delivers wonderfully vibrant lime, lemon characters with dusty, earthy undertones. On the palate the wines vibrancy seals the romance. Great definition of citrus character all bound up in a well structured wine, with layers of earth minerals and dusty, chalky notes......

2001 Pikes Reserve Riesling
POLISH HILL RIVER, CLARE VALLEY
Limited January Release Case Size: 6/750ml Riesling
Neil Pike will only release a Reserve wine in years that he determines the fruit from this particular plot deserves the special Reserve designation. 2001 was one of those years. The fruit delivered wonderful intensity of flavor within a classic Riesling framework......

2002 Pikes Riesling
CLARE VALLEY
Continuous January Release Case Size: 12/750ml Riesling
If any proof is required to attest to the quality of the 2002 vintage in the Clare Valley try this wine. Some say this is the greatest vintage ever for Riesling. With Pikes the key components on the nose are juicy citrus flavours. They are here in abundance. Lime is the most prominent but there is also some lemon and tangerine......
