Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, October 2008

Tropical suggestions of soursop, pineapple, and papaya, along with candied, spiced grapefruit and sweet floral perfume dominate the 2006 Kiedricher Grafenberg Spatlese, and one's palate is coated with glossy, oily essence of fruit and honey. Smoky hints of black tea underscore the botrytis component. Amazingly, this remains bright and invigorating, with lemon and grapefruit citricity lighting up its long, tropically-fruited, honeyed finish. This will almost certainly be worth pursuing for another 12-15 years. -David Schildknecht

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, February 2008

Delicate floral nose offers yellow plum, quince and a hint of vanilla. A honeyed richness develops on top of a nice mineral foundation to provide lift and complexity. A salty, crisp character keeps the palate fresh on the long, penetrating finish. Classic! -Joel Payne

A juicy white, displaying peach and orange cream notes. Bright, remaining lithe and well-defined through the lingering finish. This will develop well. Drink now through 2022. 150 cases imported. -BS

About Winery

Founded in 1875, Weingut Robert Weil is considered to be one of the Rheingau's younger wine estates. It is located in the heart of Kiedrich, a village first documented in the year 950. Kiedrich Turmberg and Kiedrich Gräfenberg, the estate's top vineyards, are among the finest sites in the Rheingau.

The estate cultivates 70 hectares (173 acres) of vineyards, of which 98 percent are planted with Riesling. Today, Wilhelm Weil, the great-grandson of the estate's founder, carries on the uncompromising, quality-oriented vineyard and cellar practices that have been the hallmark of the winery for four generations.
