Robert Weil Riesling Trocken

Man, Wilhelm Weil knows how to make a tasty bottle of wine! He’s a magician with Riesling and conjures evocative fruit of quintessential mineral precision. Wilhelm is the great grandson of the estate’s founder, Robert Weil. Dude’s been solely responsible for guiding the estate’s prowess since his dad sadly passed in 1989. His wines effusively convey a sense of place as the juice speaks loudly of the estate’s steep, slate rich soils.

This offering is a Trocken, which is German for a dry wine. The grapes are sourced from estate vineyards around the village of Kiedrich and demonstrate a vibrantly chiseled expression of classic Rheingau Riesling.. The nose explodes with bright lemon zest, green apple, and white peach aromas. In addition there’s layers of delicate flowers and that that oh so lovely whack of wet stone minerality. On the palate, it’s crisp and energetic, with racy acidity, driving citrus and orchard fruit flavors. The clarity and elegance of Wilhelm Weil is on full display in this easily accessible wine.
