2024 Rheingau – 100% Riesling Kiedrich Klosterberg Riesling Trocken

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.

Viticulture

the medieval connecting path from Kloster Eberbach, which crossed the site and led via the monastery’s properties in Kiedrich to Eltville. The stony-grassy soils of the south-west facing vineyard feature colorful slate rock as well as phyllite

Vinification

The vinification uses differentiated maceration times, spontaneous fermentation in traditional “Doppelstück” barrels [2,400 liters] and additional time in barrel on the full lees without sulfur until filtration. A true dry “Premier Cru from German soil” with great ageing potential.
