O’Leary Walker Polish Hill River Riesling 2022

A remarkably intense and powerful Riesling from this outstanding season. There’s the spicy bath salts on the nose that strike immediately. The palate has a deep minerality with a slightly wet slaty edge adding to the immediate complexity and a very long palate sustained by that crisp and crunchy acid. Like the Watervale, these wines sell for far less than they should.
