Rieslingfreak No.2 Polish Hill River Riesling 2026

Product Description:
The Rieslingfreak No.2 Polish Hill River Riesling 2026 is a single-vineyard Riesling sourced from the renowned Polish Hill River subregion of Clare Valley, one of Australia's most celebrated sites for producing refined, mineral-driven Riesling. The fruit comes from the Jaeschke family vineyard, planted on distinctive grey-brown loam over limestone and shale, soils that contribute to the wine's signature precision and minerality. The 2026 vintage was shaped by near-ideal growing conditions before late-season rainfall, resulting in wines of exceptional purity, elegance and regional definition.

Rieslingfreak describes the vintage as one of refined elegance, with vibrant natural acidity and excellent cellaring potential. The bouquet is intensely aromatic, revealing perfumed notes of Nashi pear, gardenia and yuzu, complemented by hints of passionfruit, papaya and freshly squeezed lime juice. The palate is finely textured yet vibrant, combining concentrated citrus and exotic fruit flavours with the hallmark talc-like minerality that defines Polish Hill River Riesling. Bright, electric acidity provides exceptional drive and precision, carrying the wine through a long, clean and refreshing finish. Enjoyable upon release yet built to reward extended cellaring, this is a classic expression of Polish Hill River Riesling that pairs beautifully with fresh seafood, oysters, sashimi, Thai cuisine and soft goat's cheese.
