2024 Kiedrich Gräfenberg Riesling Spätlese

Today, Weingut Robert Weil, founded 1875, is run by Wilhelm Weil, the fourth generation of the family. The estate’s 90ha (222 acres) of vineyards, cultivated exclusively certified organic and sustainable, are planted 100% with Riesling. The concentration on Riesling in the hillside vineyards of Kiedrich, a strict sustainable and yield-reducing work in the vineyards, selective hand harvest and extremely gentle vinification in stainless steel tanks or traditional wooden barrels (“Doppelstück”) guarantee the production of individual and great wines. Thanks to this consistent quality management, each predicate from Estate Level (“Gutswein”) to Gräfenberg (GROSSES GEWÄCHS “GG”) to Trockenbeerenauslese has been harvested continuously in a globally unique series of individual vintages since 1989 at Weingut Robert Weil. Today, many observers of the international wine scene view Weingut Robert Weil with its “Château character” as a global flagship and symbol of German Riesling culture.
